Materials Data on GaRe by Materials Project
ReGa crystallizes in the hexagonal P-6m2 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Re is bonded to six equivalent Re and six equivalent Ga atoms to form distorted ReGa6Re6 cuboctahedra that share corners with eighteen equivalent ReGa6Re6 cuboctahedra, edges with six equivalent ReGa6Re6 cuboctahedra, edges with twelve equivalent GaGa6Re6 cuboctahedra, faces with eight equivalent ReGa6Re6 cuboctahedra, and faces with twelve equivalent GaGa6Re6 cuboctahedra. All Re–Re bond lengths are 2.89 Å. All Re–Ga bond lengths are 2.65 Å.
