Materials Data on Ca2GaPt2 by Materials Project
Ca2Pt2Ga crystallizes in the monoclinic C2/c space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Ca is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Pt and four equivalent Ga atoms. There are a spread of Ca–Pt bond distances ranging from 3.06–3.13 Å. There are a spread of Ca–Ga bond distances ranging from 3.34–3.45 Å. Pt is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Ca and two equivalent Ga atoms. There are one shorter (2.56 Å) and one longer (2.59 Å) Pt–Ga bond lengths. Ga is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to eight equivalent Ca and four equivalent Pt atoms.
