Materials Data on NpCo2 by Materials Project
NpCo2 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 Co atoms. All Np–Co bond lengths are 2.88 Å. Co is bonded to six equivalent Np and six equivalent Co atoms to form a mixture of corner, edge, and face-sharing CoNp6Co6 cuboctahedra. All Co–Co bond lengths are 2.46 Å.
