Materials Data on DyPa3 by Materials Project

Abstract

Pa3Dy is Uranium Silicide structured and crystallizes in the cubic Pm-3m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Pa is bonded to eight equivalent Pa and four equivalent Dy atoms to form PaDy4Pa8 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent PaDy4Pa8 cuboctahedra, edges with eight equivalent DyPa12 cuboctahedra, edges with sixteen equivalent PaDy4Pa8 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent DyPa12 cuboctahedra, and faces with fourteen equivalent PaDy4Pa8 cuboctahedra. All Pa–Pa bond lengths are 3.33 Å. All Pa–Dy bond lengths are 3.33 Å. Dy is bonded to twelve equivalent Pa atoms to form DyPa12 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent DyPa12 cuboctahedra, edges with twenty-four equivalent PaDy4Pa8 cuboctahedra, faces with six equivalent DyPa12 cuboctahedra, and faces with twelve equivalent PaDy4Pa8 cuboctahedra.
