The crystal structure described by DyZnSn crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3/mmc space group. There are two inequivalent Dy sites. In the first Dy site, Dy(1) is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Zn(1) and six equivalent Sn(1) atoms. In the second Dy site, Dy(2) is bonded to six equivalent Sn(1) atoms to form edge-sharing DySn6 octahedra. Zn(1) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Dy(1) and three equivalent Sn(1) atoms. Sn(1) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Dy(1), three equivalent Dy(2), and three equivalent Zn(1) atoms. is represented by the CIF card [CIF]
