Abstract

Single crystals of the lanthanide-containing iridate, disamarium sodium iridium hexaoxide, Sm₂NaIrO₆, were prepared via high-temperature flux growth and structurally characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The compound crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2₁/n and is a double perovskite, consisting of a 1:1 ordered rock-salt-type lattice of corner-shared NaO₆ and IrO₆ distorted octahedra. Samarium occupies the eightfold coordination site generated by the connectivity of the octahedra.
