Materials Data on VCo3 by Materials Project

Abstract

Co3V is Uranium Silicide structured and crystallizes in the cubic Pm-3m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. V is bonded to twelve equivalent Co atoms to form VCo12 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent VCo12 cuboctahedra, edges with twenty-four equivalent CoV4Co8 cuboctahedra, faces with six equivalent VCo12 cuboctahedra, and faces with twelve equivalent CoV4Co8 cuboctahedra. All V–Co bond lengths are 2.49 Å. Co is bonded to four equivalent V and eight equivalent Co atoms to form CoV4Co8 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent CoV4Co8 cuboctahedra, edges with eight equivalent VCo12 cuboctahedra, edges with sixteen equivalent CoV4Co8 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent VCo12 cuboctahedra, and faces with fourteen equivalent CoV4Co8 cuboctahedra. All Co–Co bond lengths are 2.49 Å.
