Materials Data on LuGa2 by Materials Project
LuGa2 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Imma space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Lu is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to ten equivalent Ga atoms. There are six shorter (3.06 Å) and four longer (3.09 Å) Lu–Ga bond lengths. Ga is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to five equivalent Lu and four equivalent Ga atoms. There are a spread of Ga–Ga bond distances ranging from 2.57–2.71 Å.
