Pt2Tb is Cubic Laves structured and crystallizes in the cubic Fd-3m space group. Tb(1) is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to twelve equivalent Pt(1) atoms. Pt(1) is bonded to six equivalent Tb(1) and six equivalent Pt(1) atoms to form a mixture of face, corner, and edge-sharing PtTb6Pt6 cuboctahedra.
