Materials Data on ScNiGe by Materials Project
ScNiGe crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Sc is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Ni and six equivalent Ge atoms. There are a spread of Sc–Ni bond distances ranging from 2.81–3.04 Å. There are a spread of Sc–Ge bond distances ranging from 2.83–3.04 Å. Ni is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Sc and four equivalent Ge atoms. There are a spread of Ni–Ge bond distances ranging from 2.38–2.55 Å. Ge is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Sc and four equivalent Ni atoms.
