Materials Data on PtPb3 by Materials Project
PtPb3 crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3/mmc space group. The structure is one-dimensional and consists of two PtPb3 ribbons oriented in the (0, 0, 1) direction. Pt is bonded to six equivalent Pb atoms to form distorted face-sharing PtPb6 pentagonal pyramids. All Pt–Pb bond lengths are 2.85 Å. Pb is bonded in a distorted L-shaped geometry to two equivalent Pt atoms.
