Title: Materials Data on MgAs by Materials Project

Abstract

MgAs crystallizes in the monoclinic C2 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Mg2+ sites. In the first Mg2+ site, Mg2+ is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six As2- atoms. There are a spread of Mg–As bond distances ranging from 2.72–2.91 Å. In the second Mg2+ site, Mg2+ is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six As2- atoms. There are a spread of Mg–As bond distances ranging from 2.71–2.91 Å. There are two inequivalent As2- sites. In the first As2- site, As2- is bonded to six Mg2+ atoms to form distorted corner-sharing AsMg6 pentagonal pyramids. In the second As2- site, As2- is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to six Mg2+ and one As2- atom. The As–As bond length is 2.54 Å.
