Materials Data on Th3In by Materials Project

Abstract

Th3In is Uranium Silicide structured and crystallizes in the cubic Pm-3m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Th is bonded to eight equivalent Th and four equivalent In atoms to form distorted ThTh8In4 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent ThTh8In4 cuboctahedra, edges with eight equivalent InTh12 cuboctahedra, edges with sixteen equivalent ThTh8In4 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent InTh12 cuboctahedra, and faces with fourteen equivalent ThTh8In4 cuboctahedra. All Th–Th bond lengths are 3.51 Å. All Th–In bond lengths are 3.51 Å. In is bonded to twelve equivalent Th atoms to form InTh12 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent InTh12 cuboctahedra, edges with twenty-four equivalent ThTh8In4 cuboctahedra, faces with six equivalent InTh12 cuboctahedra, and faces with twelve equivalent ThTh8In4 cuboctahedra.
