Materials Data on Sm2Ge3Pt by Materials Project
Sm2PtGe3 is hexagonal omega structure-derived structured and crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pmm2 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Sm sites. In the first Sm site, Sm is bonded to two equivalent Pt and ten Ge atoms to form a mixture of face and edge-sharing SmGe10Pt2 cuboctahedra. Both Sm–Pt bond lengths are 3.15 Å. There are a spread of Sm–Ge bond distances ranging from 3.21–3.27 Å. In the second Sm site, Sm is bonded to four equivalent Pt and eight Ge atoms to form a mixture of face and edge-sharing SmGe8Pt4 cuboctahedra. All Sm–Pt bond lengths are 3.26 Å. There are a spread of Sm–Ge bond distances ranging from 3.13–3.24 Å. Pt is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to six Sm and three Ge atoms. There are one shorter (2.44 Å) and two longer (2.46 Å) Pt–Ge bond lengths. There are three inequivalent Ge sites. In the first Ge site, Ge is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to six Sm and three Ge atoms. There are one shorter (2.49 Å) and two longer (2.53 Å) Ge–Ge bond lengths. In the second Ge site, Ge is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to six Sm, two equivalent Pt, and one Ge atom. In the third Ge site, Ge is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to six Sm, one Pt, and two equivalent Ge atoms.
