Resumen:
A large number of binary intermetallic compounds of composition AB2 -where A is generally an electropositive metal and B a less electropositive transition metal- are found to crystallize in one of these three tetrahedral close-packed structures (TCP), known as Laves Phases: MgCu2-type cubic structure (space group Fd3m) and MgZn2 or MgNi2 types hexagonal structures (P63/mmc). After the Strukturbericht designation, the structures are also called C15, C14 and C36, respectively. In particular, C14 and C15 phases have been studied extensively due to their promising behavior as solid state hydrogen storage materials.
