Materials Data on AlV3 by Materials Project

V3Al crystallizes in the cubic Pm-3n space group. The structure is three-dimensional. V is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to ten equivalent V and four equivalent Al atoms. There are two shorter (2.40 Å) and eight longer (2.95 Å) V–V bond lengths. All V–Al bond lengths are 2.69 Å. Al is bonded to twelve equivalent V atoms to form a mixture of face and edge-sharing AlV12 cuboctahedra.
