Materials Data on NdZn2Ag by Materials Project
NdAgZn2 is Heusler structured and crystallizes in the trigonal R-3m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Nd is bonded in a distorted body-centered cubic geometry to six equivalent Ag and eight equivalent Zn atoms. All Nd–Ag bond lengths are 3.43 Å. There are two shorter (2.96 Å) and six longer (2.97 Å) Nd–Zn bond lengths. Ag is bonded in a distorted body-centered cubic geometry to six equivalent Nd and eight equivalent Zn atoms. There are two shorter (2.96 Å) and six longer (2.97 Å) Ag–Zn bond lengths. Zn is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to four equivalent Nd and four equivalent Ag atoms.
