Materials Data on BaAu by Materials Project
BaAu crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Ba is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to seven equivalent Au atoms. There are a spread of Ba–Au bond distances ranging from 3.45–3.51 Å. Au is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to seven equivalent Ba and two equivalent Au atoms. Both Au–Au bond lengths are 3.13 Å.
