Materials Data on CaGePt by Materials Project
CaPtGe crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Ca is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Pt and six equivalent Ge atoms. There are a spread of Ca–Pt bond distances ranging from 3.04–3.32 Å. There are a spread of Ca–Ge bond distances ranging from 3.08–3.28 Å. Pt is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Ca and four equivalent Ge atoms. There are three shorter (2.59 Å) and one longer (2.74 Å) Pt–Ge bond lengths. Ge is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Ca and four equivalent Pt atoms.
