Materials Data on Y(FeGe)2 by Materials Project
YFe2Ge2 crystallizes in the tetragonal I4/mmm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Y is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight equivalent Fe and eight equivalent Ge atoms. All Y–Fe bond lengths are 3.23 Å. All Y–Ge bond lengths are 3.10 Å. Fe is bonded to four equivalent Y and four equivalent Ge atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge, face, and corner-sharing FeY4Ge4 tetrahedra. All Fe–Ge bond lengths are 2.35 Å. Ge is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Y, four equivalent Fe, and one Ge atom. The Ge–Ge bond length is 2.61 Å.
