The material described by Rb3Hf is beta Cu3Ti-like structured and crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3/mmc space group. Rb(1) is bonded to eight equivalent Rb(1) and four equivalent Hf(1) atoms to form distorted RbRb8Hf4 cuboctahedra that share corners with four equivalent Hf(1)Rb12 cuboctahedra, corners with fourteen equivalent Rb(1)Rb8Hf4 cuboctahedra, edges with six equivalent Hf(1)Rb12 cuboctahedra, edges with twelve equivalent Rb(1)Rb8Hf4 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent Hf(1)Rb12 cuboctahedra, and faces with sixteen equivalent Rb(1)Rb8Hf4 cuboctahedra. Hf(1) is bonded to twelve equivalent Rb(1) atoms to form HfRb12 cuboctahedra that share corners with six equivalent Hf(1)Rb12 cuboctahedra, corners with twelve equivalent Rb(1)Rb8Hf4 cuboctahedra, edges with eighteen equivalent Rb(1)Rb8Hf4 cuboctahedra, faces with eight equivalent Hf(1)Rb12 cuboctahedra, and faces with twelve equivalent Rb(1)Rb8Hf4 cuboctahedra. is represented by the CIF card [CIF]
