Its crystal structure was established by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Sm3In5 crystallizes in orthorhombic, space group Cmcm with a = 10.0137（8）, b = 8.1211（7）, c = 10.3858（8） A, V = 844.60（1） A^3, Z = 4, Mr = 1025.15, Dc = 8.062 g/cm^3, μ = 33.791 mm^-1, F（000） = 1724, the final R = 0.0346 and wR = 0.0775 for 533 observed reflections with I 〉 2σ（I）. The structure of Sm3In5 belongs to the modified Pu3Pd5 type. It is isostructural with La3In5 and β-Y3In5, containing one-dimensional （1D） [In5] cluster chains along the c-axis, which are weakly interconnected via In-In bonds （3.345A） to form a three-dimensional （3D） structure. The samarium cations are located at the voids between the 1D [In5] cluster chains. Band structure calculations based on Density Function Theory （DFT） method indicate that Sm3In5 is metallic.展开更多
