Materials Data on Nb(ZnGa)3 by Materials Project
Nb(ZnGa)3 crystallizes in the trigonal R-3m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Nb is bonded to six equivalent Zn and six equivalent Ga atoms to form corner-sharing NbZn6Ga6 cuboctahedra. All Nb–Zn bond lengths are 2.82 Å. All Nb–Ga bond lengths are 2.74 Å. Zn is bonded in a distorted q6 geometry to two equivalent Nb, four equivalent Zn, and four equivalent Ga atoms. All Zn–Zn bond lengths are 2.74 Å. All Zn–Ga bond lengths are 2.82 Å. Ga is bonded in a distorted q6 geometry to two equivalent Nb, four equivalent Zn, and four equivalent Ga atoms. All Ga–Ga bond lengths are 2.74 Å.
