Fig. 2. Crystal structures of novel chlorides of Y, Dy, and Fe.
a Stick-and-ball model of Y2Cl structure at 41(1) GPa; b view of the Y metal framework in Y2Cl along the c-direction; c square antiprisms geometry around the Cl center in Y2Cl. d Polyhedral model of the crystal structure of DyCl at 40(1) GPa built of YCl6 octahedra; e view of the structure along the c-direction: Cl atoms form hexagonal close packing (hcp) and Y atoms occupy the space in between. f Polyhedral model of FeCl2 at 160(1) GPa. Y, Dy, Fe, and Cl atoms are shown in blue, purple, tan, and red colors, respectively.
