Tetraboride

Crystalline samples of carbon-doped CaB4 were synthesized by solid-state reactions in sealed niobium ampules from the elements Ca, B, and C. The structure was determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction (P4/mbm, Z = 4, a = 7.0989(7) Å, c = 4.1353(5) Å, R1 = 0.026, and wR2 = 0.058) revealing an atom arrangement containing a three-dimensional boron network built up from B6 octahedra and B2 dumbbells which is well-known from the structures of rare earth tetraborides.
