Materials Data on VGeRu2 by Materials Project
Ru2VGe is Heusler structured and crystallizes in the trigonal R-3m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. V is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight equivalent Ru atoms. There are six shorter (2.62 Å) and two longer (2.63 Å) V–Ru bond lengths. Ru is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to four equivalent V and four equivalent Ge atoms. There are three shorter (2.62 Å) and one longer (2.63 Å) Ru–Ge bond lengths. Ge is bonded in a distorted body-centered cubic geometry to eight equivalent Ru atoms.
