Materials Data on PaIn3 by Materials Project

Abstract

PaIn3 is Uranium Silicide structured and crystallizes in the cubic Pm-3m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Pa is bonded to twelve equivalent In atoms to form PaIn12 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent PaIn12 cuboctahedra, edges with twenty-four equivalent InPa4In8 cuboctahedra, faces with six equivalent PaIn12 cuboctahedra, and faces with twelve equivalent InPa4In8 cuboctahedra. All Pa–In bond lengths are 3.32 Å. In is bonded to four equivalent Pa and eight equivalent In atoms to form InPa4In8 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent InPa4In8 cuboctahedra, edges with eight equivalent PaIn12 cuboctahedra, edges with sixteen equivalent InPa4In8 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent PaIn12 cuboctahedra, and faces with fourteen equivalent InPa4In8 cuboctahedra. All In–In bond lengths are 3.32 Å.
