Materials Data on HoPt2 by Materials Project
HoPt2 is Cubic Laves structured and crystallizes in the cubic Fd-3m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Ho is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to twelve equivalent Pt atoms. All Ho–Pt bond lengths are 3.18 Å. Pt is bonded to six equivalent Ho and six equivalent Pt atoms to form a mixture of face, edge, and corner-sharing PtHo6Pt6 cuboctahedra. All Pt–Pt bond lengths are 2.72 Å.
