Materials Data on ErGaNi by Materials Project
ErNiGa crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Er is bonded in a 11-coordinate geometry to five equivalent Ni and six equivalent Ga atoms. There are a spread of Er–Ni bond distances ranging from 2.85–3.03 Å. There are a spread of Er–Ga bond distances ranging from 2.98–3.10 Å. Ni is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to five equivalent Er and four equivalent Ga atoms. There are a spread of Ni–Ga bond distances ranging from 2.49–2.63 Å. Ga is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Er and four equivalent Ni atoms.
