Materials Data on Ag3Pt by Materials Project

Abstract

PtAg3 is Uranium Silicide structured and crystallizes in the cubic Pm-3m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Pt is bonded to twelve equivalent Ag atoms to form PtAg12 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent PtAg12 cuboctahedra, edges with twenty-four equivalent AgAg8Pt4 cuboctahedra, faces with six equivalent PtAg12 cuboctahedra, and faces with twelve equivalent AgAg8Pt4 cuboctahedra. All Pt–Ag bond lengths are 2.90 Å. Ag is bonded to four equivalent Pt and eight equivalent Ag atoms to form AgAg8Pt4 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent AgAg8Pt4 cuboctahedra, edges with eight equivalent PtAg12 cuboctahedra, edges with sixteen equivalent AgAg8Pt4 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent PtAg12 cuboctahedra, and faces with fourteen equivalent AgAg8Pt4 cuboctahedra. All Ag–Ag bond lengths are 2.90 Å.
