Title: Materials Data on Ce2(ZnGe2)3 by Materials Project

Abstract

Ce2(ZnGe2)3 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Cmcm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Ce sites. In the first Ce site, Ce is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to six Zn and eight Ge atoms. There are two shorter (3.27 Å) and four longer (3.30 Å) Ce–Zn bond lengths. There are a spread of Ce–Ge bond distances ranging from 3.11–3.23 Å. In the second Ce site, Ce is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to six Zn and eight Ge atoms. There are two shorter (3.28 Å) and four longer (3.39 Å) Ce–Zn bond lengths. There are a spread of Ce–Ge bond distances ranging from 3.11–3.22 Å. There are two inequivalent Zn sites. In the first Zn site, Zn is bonded to four Ce and four Ge atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge and face-sharing ZnCe4Ge4 tetrahedra. There are two shorter (2.61 Å) and two longer (2.69 Å) Zn–Ge bond lengths. In the second Zn site, Zn is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to four Ce and five Ge atoms. There are one shorter (2.51 Å) and four longer (2.59 Å) Zn–Ge bond lengths. There are three inequivalent Ge sites. In the first Ge site, Ge ismore » bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to two Ce, one Zn, and three equivalent Ge atoms. There are one shorter (2.51 Å) and two longer (2.59 Å) Ge–Ge bond lengths. In the second Ge site, Ge is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to four Ce and five Zn atoms. In the third Ge site, Ge is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to four Ce and four equivalent Zn atoms.« less
