Materials Data on LaTiGe3 by Materials Project
LaTiGe3 crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3/mmc space group. The structure is three-dimensional. La is bonded to twelve equivalent Ge atoms to form distorted LaGe12 cuboctahedra that share corners with six equivalent LaGe12 cuboctahedra, corners with six equivalent TiGe6 octahedra, faces with eight equivalent LaGe12 cuboctahedra, and faces with six equivalent TiGe6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 29°. There are six shorter (3.19 Å) and six longer (3.32 Å) La–Ge bond lengths. Ti is bonded to six equivalent Ge atoms to form TiGe6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent LaGe12 cuboctahedra, faces with six equivalent LaGe12 cuboctahedra, and faces with two equivalent TiGe6 octahedra. All Ti–Ge bond lengths are 2.62 Å. Ge is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to four equivalent La, two equivalent Ti, and two equivalent Ge atoms. Both Ge–Ge bond lengths are 2.60 Å.
