The Materials Project

Ni2Zn3Ge crystallizes in the cubic Fd-3m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Ni is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Ni, six equivalent Zn, and three equivalent Ge atoms. All Ni–Ni bond lengths are 2.73 Å. There are three shorter (2.50 Å) and three longer (2.83 Å) Ni–Zn bond lengths. All Ni–Ge bond lengths are 2.39 Å. Zn is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Ni and two equivalent Ge atoms. Both Zn–Ge bond lengths are 2.84 Å. Ge is bonded to six equivalent Ni and six equivalent Zn atoms to form face-sharing GeZn6Ni6 cuboctahedra.
