Materials Data on Rb3Ag by Materials Project

Abstract

Rb3Ag is Uranium Silicide structured and crystallizes in the cubic Pm-3m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Rb is bonded to eight equivalent Rb and four equivalent Ag atoms to form distorted RbRb8Ag4 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent RbRb8Ag4 cuboctahedra, edges with eight equivalent AgRb12 cuboctahedra, edges with sixteen equivalent RbRb8Ag4 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent AgRb12 cuboctahedra, and faces with fourteen equivalent RbRb8Ag4 cuboctahedra. All Rb–Rb bond lengths are 4.34 Å. All Rb–Ag bond lengths are 4.34 Å. Ag is bonded to twelve equivalent Rb atoms to form AgRb12 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent AgRb12 cuboctahedra, edges with twenty-four equivalent RbRb8Ag4 cuboctahedra, faces with six equivalent AgRb12 cuboctahedra, and faces with twelve equivalent RbRb8Ag4 cuboctahedra.
