Materials Data on Th3Ni3Sn4 by Materials Project
Th3Ni3Sn4 crystallizes in the cubic I-43d space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Th is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Ni and eight equivalent Sn atoms. All Th–Ni bond lengths are 2.96 Å. There are four shorter (3.30 Å) and four longer (3.39 Å) Th–Sn bond lengths. Ni is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Th and four equivalent Sn atoms. All Ni–Sn bond lengths are 2.68 Å. Sn is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Th and three equivalent Ni atoms.
