Materials Data on ThOs2 by Materials Project
ThOs2 is Cubic Laves structured and crystallizes in the cubic Fd-3m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Th4+ is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to twelve equivalent Os2- atoms. All Th–Os bond lengths are 3.21 Å. Os2- is bonded to six equivalent Th4+ and six equivalent Os2- atoms to form a mixture of corner, edge, and face-sharing OsTh6Os6 cuboctahedra. All Os–Os bond lengths are 2.73 Å.
