Materials Data on Li2NdGe by Materials Project
Li2NdGe crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3/mmc space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Li is bonded in a distorted trigonal non-coplanar geometry to four equivalent Nd and three equivalent Ge atoms. There are one shorter (2.99 Å) and three longer (3.07 Å) Li–Nd bond lengths. All Li–Ge bond lengths are 2.59 Å. Nd is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight equivalent Li and six equivalent Ge atoms. All Nd–Ge bond lengths are 3.46 Å. Ge is bonded in a distorted hexagonal planar geometry to six equivalent Li and six equivalent Nd atoms.
