Materials Data on ZrGeIr by Materials Project
ZrIrGe crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Zr is bonded in a 11-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Ir and five equivalent Ge atoms. There are a spread of Zr–Ir bond distances ranging from 2.99–3.12 Å. There are three shorter (2.85 Å) and two longer (2.87 Å) Zr–Ge bond lengths. Ir is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Zr and four equivalent Ge atoms. There are a spread of Ir–Ge bond distances ranging from 2.52–2.57 Å. Ge is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to five equivalent Zr and four equivalent Ir atoms.
