Stuck in Our Teeth? Crystal Structure of a New Copper Amalgam, Cu3Hg

We have synthesized a new Cu amalgam, the Cu-rich phase Cu 3 Hg. It crystallizes with the Ni 3 Sn structure type with a hexagonal unit cell (space group P6 3 /mmc , a = 5.408(4) Å, c = 4.390(3) Å) and shows some mixed occupancy of Cu on the Hg site, resulting in a refined compos...
