Materials Data on Ga3Te by Materials Project
Ga3Te crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3/mmc space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Ga is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Ga and four equivalent Te atoms. There are two shorter (3.04 Å) and four longer (3.16 Å) Ga–Ga bond lengths. There are two shorter (3.20 Å) and two longer (3.27 Å) Ga–Te bond lengths. Te is bonded to twelve equivalent Ga atoms to form a mixture of face and corner-sharing TeGa12 cuboctahedra.
