Materials Data on Ho3Pu by Materials Project
PuHo3 is Uranium Silicide structured and crystallizes in the cubic Pm-3m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Pu is bonded to twelve equivalent Ho atoms to form PuHo12 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent PuHo12 cuboctahedra, edges with twenty-four equivalent HoHo8Pu4 cuboctahedra, faces with six equivalent PuHo12 cuboctahedra, and faces with twelve equivalent HoHo8Pu4 cuboctahedra. All Pu–Ho bond lengths are 3.50 Å. Ho is bonded to four equivalent Pu and eight equivalent Ho atoms to form HoHo8Pu4 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent HoHo8Pu4 cuboctahedra, edges with eight equivalent PuHo12 cuboctahedra, edges with sixteen equivalent HoHo8Pu4 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent PuHo12 cuboctahedra, and faces with fourteen equivalent HoHo8Pu4 cuboctahedra. All Ho–Ho bond lengths are 3.50 Å.
