The material described by K3Hf is Uranium Silicide-like structured and crystallizes in the tetragonal I4/mmm space group. There are two inequivalent K sites. In the first K site, K(1) is bonded to four equivalent K(1), four equivalent K(2), and four equivalent Hf(1) atoms to form distorted KK8Hf4 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent K(1)K8Hf4 cuboctahedra, edges with eight equivalent K(1)K8Hf4 cuboctahedra, edges with eight equivalent Hf(1)K12 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent Hf(1)K12 cuboctahedra, and faces with ten equivalent K(1)K8Hf4 cuboctahedra. In the second K site, K(2) is bonded in a distorted square co-planar geometry to eight equivalent K(1) and four equivalent Hf(1) atoms. Hf(1) is bonded to four equivalent K(2) and eight equivalent K(1) atoms to form HfK12 cuboctahedra that share corners with four equivalent Hf(1)K12 cuboctahedra, edges with eight equivalent Hf(1)K12 cuboctahedra, edges with sixteen equivalent K(1)K8Hf4 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent Hf(1)K12 cuboctahedra, and faces with eight equivalent K(1)K8Hf4 cuboctahedra. is represented by the Crystallographic Information File (CIF) [CIF]
