Materials Data on Be2C by Materials Project
Be2C is Fluorite structured and crystallizes in the cubic Fm-3m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Be2+ is bonded to four equivalent C4- atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing BeC4 tetrahedra. All Be–C bond lengths are 1.87 Å. C4- is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight equivalent Be2+ atoms.
