Materials Data on As2Pt by Materials Project
PtAs2 is pyrite structured and crystallizes in the cubic Pa-3 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Pt2- is bonded to six equivalent As1+ atoms to form corner-sharing PtAs6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 64°. All Pt–As bond lengths are 2.53 Å. As1+ is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three equivalent Pt2- atoms.
