Materials Data on NpIr2 by Materials Project
NpIr2 is Cubic Laves structured and crystallizes in the cubic Fd-3m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Np is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to twelve equivalent Ir atoms. All Np–Ir bond lengths are 3.10 Å. Ir is bonded to six equivalent Np and six equivalent Ir atoms to form a mixture of edge, face, and corner-sharing IrNp6Ir6 cuboctahedra. All Ir–Ir bond lengths are 2.64 Å.
