Materials Data on UMn2 by Materials Project

UMn2 is Cubic Laves structured and crystallizes in the cubic Fd-3m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. U is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to four equivalent U and twelve equivalent Mn atoms. All U–U bond lengths are 3.06 Å. All U–Mn bond lengths are 2.93 Å. Mn is bonded to six equivalent U and six equivalent Mn atoms to form a mixture of edge, face, and corner-sharing MnU6Mn6 cuboctahedra. All Mn–Mn bond lengths are 2.50 Å.

Materials Data on UMn2 by Materials Project

UMn2 is Cubic Laves structured and crystallizes in the orthorhombic Imma space group. The structure is three-dimensional. U is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to two equivalent U and twelve Mn atoms. Both U–U bond lengths are 2.79 Å. There are a spread of U–Mn bond distances ranging from 2.75–3.06 Å. There are two inequivalent Mn sites. In the first Mn site, Mn is bonded to six equivalent U and six Mn atoms to form a mixture of face, edge, and corner-sharing MnU6Mn6 cuboctahedra. There are four shorter (2.52 Å) and two longer (2.62 Å) Mn–Mn bond lengths. In the second Mn site, Mn is bonded to six equivalent U and six Mn atoms to form a mixture of distorted face, edge, and corner-sharing MnU6Mn6 cuboctahedra. Both Mn–Mn bond lengths are 2.20 Å.
