Title: Materials Data on Nb5Ge4 by Materials Project

Abstract

Nb5Ge4 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are three inequivalent Nb sites. In the first Nb site, Nb is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to seven Ge atoms. There are a spread of Nb–Ge bond distances ranging from 2.73–2.97 Å. In the second Nb site, Nb is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six Ge atoms. There are a spread of Nb–Ge bond distances ranging from 2.57–2.78 Å. In the third Nb site, Nb is bonded to six Ge atoms to form distorted corner-sharing NbGe6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 42–58°. There are a spread of Nb–Ge bond distances ranging from 2.58–2.79 Å. There are three inequivalent Ge sites. In the first Ge site, Ge is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to eight Nb and one Ge atom. The Ge–Ge bond length is 2.58 Å. In the second Ge site, Ge is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight Nb atoms. In the third Ge site, Ge is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to eight Nb and one Ge atom.
