Materials Data on TaAu by Materials Project
AuTa is Tetraauricupride structured and crystallizes in the tetragonal P4/mmm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Ta is bonded to eight equivalent Au atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner, edge, and face-sharing TaAu8 cuboctahedra. All Ta–Au bond lengths are 2.93 Å.
