Materials Data on Sm(CuGe)2 by Materials Project

SmCu2Ge2 crystallizes in the tetragonal I4/mmm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Sm is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight equivalent Cu and eight equivalent Ge atoms. All Sm–Cu bond lengths are 3.30 Å. All Sm–Ge bond lengths are 3.16 Å. Cu is bonded to four equivalent Sm and four equivalent Ge atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge, face, and corner-sharing CuSm4Ge4 tetrahedra. All Cu–Ge bond lengths are 2.45 Å. Ge is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Sm, four equivalent Cu, and one Ge atom. The Ge–Ge bond length is 2.50 Å.
