Materials Data on Pu by Materials Project
Pu is beta Plutonium structured and crystallizes in the monoclinic C2/m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are seven inequivalent Pu sites. In the first Pu site, Pu is bonded in a cuboctahedral geometry to twelve Pu atoms. There are a spread of Pu–Pu bond distances ranging from 3.00–3.31 Å. In the second Pu site, Pu is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to twelve Pu atoms. There are a spread of Pu–Pu bond distances ranging from 2.61–3.64 Å. In the third Pu site, Pu is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to fourteen Pu atoms. There are a spread of Pu–Pu bond distances ranging from 3.05–3.58 Å. In the fourth Pu site, Pu is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to twelve Pu atoms. There are a spread of Pu–Pu bond distances ranging from 3.09–3.42 Å. In the fifth Pu site, Pu is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to twelve Pu atoms. There are a spread of Pu–Pu bond distances ranging from 2.89–3.42 Å. In the sixth Pu site, Pu is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to fourteen Pu atoms. There are a spread of Pu–Pu bond distances ranging from 2.91–3.58 Å. In the seventh Pu site, Pu is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to ten Pu atoms. The Pu–Pu bond length is 2.67 Å.
