Materials Data on LaRh2 by Materials Project
LaRh2 is Cubic Laves structured and crystallizes in the cubic Fd-3m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. La is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to twelve equivalent Rh atoms. All La–Rh bond lengths are 3.20 Å. Rh is bonded to six equivalent La and six equivalent Rh atoms to form a mixture of edge, face, and corner-sharing RhLa6Rh6 cuboctahedra. All Rh–Rh bond lengths are 2.73 Å.
