Title: Materials Data on TaAl4Ni15 by Materials Project

Abstract

TaNi15Al4 is Uranium Silicide-derived structured and crystallizes in the tetragonal P4/mmm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Ta is bonded to twelve Ni atoms to form TaNi12 cuboctahedra that share corners with four equivalent TaNi12 cuboctahedra, corners with eight equivalent AlNi12 cuboctahedra, edges with twenty-four NiTa2Al2Ni8 cuboctahedra, faces with two equivalent AlNi12 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent TaNi12 cuboctahedra, and faces with twelve NiTa4Ni8 cuboctahedra. There are four shorter (2.53 Å) and eight longer (2.56 Å) Ta–Ni bond lengths. There are seven inequivalent Ni sites. In the first Ni site, Ni is bonded to four equivalent Ta and eight Ni atoms to form distorted NiTa4Ni8 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve NiTa4Ni8 cuboctahedra, edges with eight equivalent AlNi12 cuboctahedra, edges with sixteen NiTa2Al2Ni8 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent TaNi12 cuboctahedra, and faces with fourteen NiTa4Ni8 cuboctahedra. All Ni–Ni bond lengths are 2.56 Å. In the second Ni site, Ni is bonded to eight Ni and four equivalent Al atoms to form NiAl4Ni8 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve NiTa4Ni8 cuboctahedra, edges with four equivalent TaNi12 cuboctahedra, edges with four equivalent AlNi12 cuboctahedra, edges with sixteen NiTa2Al2Ni8 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent AlNi12 cuboctahedra, and faces with fourteen NiTa4Ni8 cuboctahedra.
