Materials Data on MnGaGe by Materials Project
MnGaGe is Matlockite structured and crystallizes in the tetragonal P4/nmm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Mn is bonded in a distorted body-centered cubic geometry to four equivalent Ga and four equivalent Ge atoms. All Mn–Ga bond lengths are 2.64 Å. All Mn–Ge bond lengths are 2.58 Å. Ga is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Mn and five equivalent Ge atoms. There are one shorter (2.50 Å) and four longer (2.79 Å) Ga–Ge bond lengths. Ge is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Mn and five equivalent Ga atoms.
