Materials Data on ThAl2 by Materials Project

ThAl2 is Cubic Laves structured and crystallizes in the cubic Fd-3m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Th is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Th and twelve equivalent Al atoms. All Th–Th bond lengths are 3.49 Å. All Th–Al bond lengths are 3.34 Å. Al is bonded to six equivalent Th and six equivalent Al atoms to form a mixture of face, edge, and corner-sharing AlTh6Al6 cuboctahedra. All Al–Al bond lengths are 2.85 Å.
