The crystal structure described by SmVSb3 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pbcm space group. Sm(1) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Sb(1), two equivalent Sb(2), and three equivalent Sb(3) atoms. V(1) is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Sb(1) and two equivalent Sb(3) atoms. There are three inequivalent Sb sites. In the first Sb site, Sb(1) is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to two equivalent Sm(1) and one V(1) atom. In the second Sb site, Sb(2) is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Sm(1) and one Sb(3) atom. In the third Sb site, Sb(3) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Sm(1), two equivalent V(1), and one Sb(2) atom. is represented by the Crystallographic Information File (CIF) [CIF]
