Materials Data on CeHo3 by Materials Project

Abstract

Ho3Ce is Uranium Silicide structured and crystallizes in the cubic Pm-3m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Ho is bonded to eight equivalent Ho and four equivalent Ce atoms to form HoCe4Ho8 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent HoCe4Ho8 cuboctahedra, edges with eight equivalent CeHo12 cuboctahedra, edges with sixteen equivalent HoCe4Ho8 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent CeHo12 cuboctahedra, and faces with fourteen equivalent HoCe4Ho8 cuboctahedra. All Ho–Ho bond lengths are 3.55 Å. All Ho–Ce bond lengths are 3.55 Å. Ce is bonded to twelve equivalent Ho atoms to form CeHo12 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent CeHo12 cuboctahedra, edges with twenty-four equivalent HoCe4Ho8 cuboctahedra, faces with six equivalent CeHo12 cuboctahedra, and faces with twelve equivalent HoCe4Ho8 cuboctahedra.
