Materials Data on MgZn2Ir by Materials Project
MgIrZn2 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Immm space group. The structure is one-dimensional and consists of two MgIrZn2 ribbons oriented in the (1, 0, 0) direction. Mg is bonded in a linear geometry to two equivalent Zn atoms. Both Mg–Zn bond lengths are 2.73 Å. Ir is bonded in a linear geometry to two equivalent Zn atoms. Both Ir–Zn bond lengths are 2.45 Å. Zn is bonded in a linear geometry to one Mg and one Ir atom.
