Materials Data on CeMg2Ni by Materials Project

Abstract

CeMg2Ni crystallizes in the cubic F-43m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Mg sites. In the first Mg site, Mg is bonded in a distorted body-centered cubic geometry to four equivalent Mg and four equivalent Ce atoms. All Mg–Mg bond lengths are 2.98 Å. All Mg–Ce bond lengths are 2.98 Å. In the second Mg site, Mg is bonded to four equivalent Mg and four equivalent Ni atoms to form distorted edge-sharing MgMg4Ni4 tetrahedra. All Mg–Ni bond lengths are 2.98 Å. Ce is bonded in a distorted body-centered cubic geometry to four equivalent Mg and four equivalent Ni atoms. All Ce–Ni bond lengths are 2.98 Å. Ni is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to four equivalent Mg and four equivalent Ce atoms.
