Materials Data on Ca3Ge2Au9 by Materials Project
Abstract
Ca3Au9Ge2 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnnm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Ca sites. In the first Ca site, Ca is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to twelve Au and three equivalent Ge atoms. There are a spread of Ca–Au bond distances ranging from 3.17–3.63 Å. There are two shorter (3.21 Å) and one longer (3.39 Å) Ca–Ge bond lengths. In the second Ca site, Ca is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight Au atoms. There are a spread of Ca–Au bond distances ranging from 3.10–3.30 Å. There are five inequivalent Au sites. In the first Au site, Au is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Ca, six Au, and one Ge atom. There are a spread of Au–Au bond distances ranging from 2.90–3.00 Å. The Au–Ge bond length is 2.78 Å. In the second Au site, Au is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to four Ca, five Au, and one Ge atom. There are one shorter (2.79 Å) and two longer (2.84 Å) Au–Au bond lengths. The Au–Ge bond length is 2.58 Å. In the third Au site, Au is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to four Ca, four Au, and twomore »
