Materials Data on CaBeGe by Materials Project
CaBeGe crystallizes in the hexagonal P-6m2 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Ca is bonded to six equivalent Be and six equivalent Ge atoms to form a mixture of edge and face-sharing CaBe6Ge6 cuboctahedra. All Ca–Be bond lengths are 3.15 Å. All Ca–Ge bond lengths are 3.15 Å. Be is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to six equivalent Ca and three equivalent Ge atoms. All Be–Ge bond lengths are 2.29 Å. Ge is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to six equivalent Ca and three equivalent Be atoms.
