Materials Data on LaZnHg2 by Materials Project
LaHg2Zn crystallizes in the orthorhombic Immm space group. The structure is one-dimensional and consists of two LaHg2Zn ribbons oriented in the (1, 0, 0) direction. La is bonded in a linear geometry to two equivalent Hg atoms. Both La–Hg bond lengths are 3.16 Å. Hg is bonded in a linear geometry to one La and one Zn atom. The Hg–Zn bond length is 2.80 Å. Zn is bonded in a linear geometry to two equivalent Hg atoms.
