Title: Materials Data on Mg2In by Materials Project

Abstract

Mg2In is zeta silver zinc structured and crystallizes in the hexagonal P-62m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Mg sites. In the first Mg site, Mg is bonded to four In atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing MgIn4 tetrahedra. There are two shorter (2.99 Å) and two longer (3.00 Å) Mg–In bond lengths. In the second Mg site, Mg is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to five In atoms. There are one shorter (3.12 Å) and four longer (3.16 Å) Mg–In bond lengths. There are two inequivalent In sites. In the first In site, In is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to nine Mg atoms. In the second In site, In is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to nine Mg atoms.
