Materials Data on Ga3Au by Materials Project
AuGa3 is alpha bismuth trifluoride structured and crystallizes in the cubic Fm-3m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Au is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight equivalent Ga atoms. All Au–Ga bond lengths are 2.89 Å. There are two inequivalent Ga sites. In the first Ga site, Ga is bonded in a distorted body-centered cubic geometry to four equivalent Au and four equivalent Ga atoms. All Ga–Ga bond lengths are 2.89 Å. In the second Ga site, Ga is bonded in a distorted body-centered cubic geometry to eight equivalent Ga atoms.
