Materials Data on RbCa3 by Materials Project

RbCa3 is Uranium Silicide structured and crystallizes in the cubic Pm-3m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Rb is bonded to twelve equivalent Ca atoms to form RbCa12 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent RbCa12 cuboctahedra, edges with twenty-four equivalent CaRb4Ca8 cuboctahedra, faces with six equivalent RbCa12 cuboctahedra, and faces with twelve equivalent CaRb4Ca8 cuboctahedra. All Rb–Ca bond lengths are 4.12 Å. Ca is bonded to four equivalent Rb and eight equivalent Ca atoms to form CaRb4Ca8 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent CaRb4Ca8 cuboctahedra, edges with eight equivalent RbCa12 cuboctahedra, edges with sixteen equivalent CaRb4Ca8 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent RbCa12 cuboctahedra, and faces with fourteen equivalent CaRb4Ca8 cuboctahedra. All Ca–Ca bond lengths are 4.12 Å.

Materials Data on RbCa3 by Materials Project

RbCa3 is alpha bismuth trifluoride structured and crystallizes in the cubic Fm-3m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Rb is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to fourteen Ca atoms. There are eight shorter (4.01 Å) and six longer (4.63 Å) Rb–Ca bond lengths. There are two inequivalent Ca sites. In the first Ca site, Ca is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to four equivalent Rb and four equivalent Ca atoms. All Ca–Ca bond lengths are 4.01 Å. In the second Ca site, Ca is bonded in a distorted body-centered cubic geometry to six equivalent Rb and eight equivalent Ca atoms.

RbCa3 is beta Cu3Ti-like structured and crystallizes in the tetragonal I4/mmm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Rb is bonded to twelve Ca atoms to form RbCa12 cuboctahedra that share corners with four equivalent RbCa12 cuboctahedra, corners with eight equivalent CaRb4Ca8 cuboctahedra, edges with eight equivalent RbCa12 cuboctahedra, edges with sixteen equivalent CaRb4Ca8 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent RbCa12 cuboctahedra, and faces with fourteen CaRb4Ca8 cuboctahedra. There are four shorter (4.12 Å) and eight longer (4.13 Å) Rb–Ca bond lengths. There are two inequivalent Ca sites. In the first Ca site, Ca is bonded to four equivalent Rb and eight Ca atoms to form CaRb4Ca8 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent CaRb4Ca8 cuboctahedra, edges with eight equivalent RbCa12 cuboctahedra, edges with sixteen CaRb4Ca8 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent RbCa12 cuboctahedra, and faces with fourteen CaRb4Ca8 cuboctahedra. There are four shorter (4.12 Å) and four longer (4.13 Å) Ca–Ca bond lengths.
