The Materials Project

MgH2 is Fluorite structured and crystallizes in the cubic Fm-3m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Mg2+ is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight equivalent H1- atoms. All Mg–H bond lengths are 2.06 Å. H1- is bonded to four equivalent Mg2+ atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing HMg4 tetrahedra.
