Materials Data on UGa3 by Materials Project

UGa3 is Uranium Silicide structured and crystallizes in the cubic Pm-3m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. U is bonded to twelve equivalent Ga atoms to form UGa12 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent UGa12 cuboctahedra, edges with twenty-four equivalent GaU4Ga8 cuboctahedra, faces with six equivalent UGa12 cuboctahedra, and faces with twelve equivalent GaU4Ga8 cuboctahedra. All U–Ga bond lengths are 3.00 Å. Ga is bonded to four equivalent U and eight equivalent Ga atoms to form distorted GaU4Ga8 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent GaU4Ga8 cuboctahedra, edges with eight equivalent UGa12 cuboctahedra, edges with sixteen equivalent GaU4Ga8 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent UGa12 cuboctahedra, and faces with fourteen equivalent GaU4Ga8 cuboctahedra. All Ga–Ga bond lengths are 3.00 Å.
