Materials Data on Pa3Mo by Materials Project
Pa3Mo is beta Cu3Ti-like structured and crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3/mmc space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Pa is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to eight equivalent Pa and four equivalent Mo atoms. There are a spread of Pa–Pa bond distances ranging from 2.94–3.34 Å. There are two shorter (3.08 Å) and two longer (3.26 Å) Pa–Mo bond lengths. Mo is bonded to twelve equivalent Pa atoms to form a mixture of corner and face-sharing MoPa12 cuboctahedra.
