Materials Data on HfV2 by Materials Project

HfV2 is Cubic Laves structured and crystallizes in the tetragonal I4_1/amd space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Hf is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Hf and twelve equivalent V atoms. All Hf–Hf bond lengths are 3.17 Å. There are four shorter (2.98 Å) and eight longer (3.07 Å) Hf–V bond lengths. V is bonded to six equivalent Hf and six equivalent V atoms to form a mixture of corner, edge, and face-sharing VHf6V6 cuboctahedra. There are four shorter (2.57 Å) and two longer (2.63 Å) V–V bond lengths.
