DOI:https://doi.org/10.17188/1195916· OSTI ID:1195916

Pu(CuSi)2 crystallizes in the tetragonal I4/mmm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Pu6+ is bonded in a distorted body-centered cubic geometry to eight equivalent Si4- atoms. All Pu–Si bond lengths are 3.05 Å. Cu1+ is bonded to four equivalent Si4- atoms to form a mixture of corner and edge-sharing CuSi4 tetrahedra. All Cu–Si bond lengths are 2.39 Å. Si4- is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Pu6+, four equivalent Cu1+, and one Si4- atom. The Si–Si bond length is 2.35 Å.
