Materials Data on GaCu2 by Materials Project
Cu2Ga crystallizes in the orthorhombic Imma space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Cu is bonded in a 11-coordinate geometry to five equivalent Cu and six equivalent Ga atoms. There are a spread of Cu–Cu bond distances ranging from 2.42–2.62 Å. There are a spread of Cu–Ga bond distances ranging from 2.73–2.79 Å. Ga is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to twelve equivalent Cu and two equivalent Ga atoms. Both Ga–Ga bond lengths are 2.59 Å.
