The Materials Project

Sm3Ge5 crystallizes in the hexagonal P-62c space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Sm is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to ten Ge atoms. There are a spread of Sm–Ge bond distances ranging from 3.03–3.51 Å. There are three inequivalent Ge sites. In the first Ge site, Ge is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Sm and three equivalent Ge atoms. All Ge–Ge bond lengths are 2.58 Å. In the second Ge site, Ge is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Sm and three equivalent Ge atoms. All Ge–Ge bond lengths are 2.60 Å. In the third Ge site, Ge is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Sm and two Ge atoms.
