The Materials Project

Ge crystallizes in the tetragonal P4_32_12 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Ge sites. In the first Ge site, Ge is bonded to four equivalent Ge atoms to form distorted corner-sharing GeGe4 tetrahedra. There are two shorter (2.52 Å) and two longer (2.53 Å) Ge–Ge bond lengths. In the second Ge site, Ge is bonded in a rectangular see-saw-like geometry to four Ge atoms. Both Ge–Ge bond lengths are 2.55 Å.
