The structure described by Dy8CoIn3 crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3mc space group. There are four inequivalent Dy sites. In the first Dy site, Dy(1) is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Co(1) and four equivalent In(1) atoms. In the second Dy site, Dy(2) is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to one Co(1) and four equivalent In(1) atoms. In the third Dy site, Dy(3) is bonded to one Co(1) and three equivalent In(1) atoms to form distorted corner-sharing DyIn3Co tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 13-48°. In the fourth Dy site, Dy(4) is bonded to six equivalent In(1) atoms to form distorted DyIn6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent Dy(3)In3Co tetrahedra and faces with two equivalent Dy(4)In6 octahedra. Co(1) is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to one Dy(3), three equivalent Dy(1), and three equivalent Dy(2) atoms. In(1) is bonded in a 11-coordinate geometry to one Dy(3), two equivalent Dy(4), four equivalent Dy(1), and four equivalent Dy(2) atoms. is represented by the Crystallographic Information File (CIF) [CIF]
