Materials Data on PuIn by Materials Project

Abstract

PuIn is Tetraauricupride structured and crystallizes in the tetragonal P4/mmm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Pu is bonded to four equivalent Pu and eight equivalent In atoms to form PuPu4In8 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent PuPu4In8 cuboctahedra, edges with eight equivalent PuPu4In8 cuboctahedra, edges with sixteen equivalent InPu8In4 cuboctahedra, faces with eight equivalent InPu8In4 cuboctahedra, and faces with ten equivalent PuPu4In8 cuboctahedra. All Pu–Pu bond lengths are 3.22 Å. All Pu–In bond lengths are 3.36 Å. In is bonded to eight equivalent Pu and four equivalent In atoms to form InPu8In4 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent InPu8In4 cuboctahedra, edges with eight equivalent InPu8In4 cuboctahedra, edges with sixteen equivalent PuPu4In8 cuboctahedra, faces with eight equivalent PuPu4In8 cuboctahedra, and faces with ten equivalent InPu8In4 cuboctahedra. All In–In bond lengths are 3.22 Å.
