Materials Data on Ba(CoGe)2 by Materials Project
Ba(CoGe)2 crystallizes in the tetragonal I4/mmm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Ba is bonded in a distorted body-centered cubic geometry to eight equivalent Ge atoms. All Ba–Ge bond lengths are 3.42 Å. Co is bonded to four equivalent Ge atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner and edge-sharing CoGe4 tetrahedra. All Co–Ge bond lengths are 2.34 Å. Ge is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Ba and four equivalent Co atoms.
