The crystal structure described by TbMn2 is Hexagonal Laves structured and crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3/mmc space group. Tb(1) is bonded in a 16-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Tb(1), three equivalent Mn(1), and nine equivalent Mn(2) atoms. There are two inequivalent Mn sites. In the first Mn site, Mn(1) is bonded to six equivalent Tb(1) and six equivalent Mn(2) atoms to form a mixture of corner, edge, and face-sharing MnTb6Mn6 cuboctahedra. In the second Mn site, Mn(2) is bonded to six equivalent Tb(1), two equivalent Mn(1), and four equivalent Mn(2) atoms to form a mixture of corner, edge, and face-sharing MnTb6Mn6 cuboctahedra. is represented by the Crystallographic Information File (CIF) [CIF]
