The material structure described by DyLa3C8 crystallizes in the tetragonal P4/mmm space group. Dy(1) is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to two equivalent C(1) and eight equivalent C(4) atoms. There are two inequivalent La sites. In the first La site, La(1) is bonded in a distorted q4 geometry to one C(2), one C(4), four equivalent C(1), and four equivalent C(3) atoms. In the second La site, La(2) is bonded in a distorted q4 geometry to two equivalent C(3) and eight equivalent C(2) atoms. There are four inequivalent C sites. In the first C site, C(1) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to one Dy(1), four equivalent La(1), and one C(3) atom. In the second C site, C(2) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to one La(1), four equivalent La(2), and one C(2) atom. In the third C site, C(3) is bonded to one La(2), four equivalent La(1), and one C(1) atom to form a mixture of distorted corner and edge-sharing CLa5C octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 0-24°. In the fourth C site, C(4) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Dy(1), one La(1), and one C(4) atom. is represented by the Crystallographic Information File (CIF) [CIF]
