Materials Data on MgGePd2 by Materials Project
MgPd2Ge is Heusler structured and crystallizes in the cubic Fm-3m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Mg is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight equivalent Pd and six equivalent Ge atoms. All Mg–Pd bond lengths are 2.73 Å. All Mg–Ge bond lengths are 3.16 Å. Pd is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to four equivalent Mg and four equivalent Ge atoms. All Pd–Ge bond lengths are 2.73 Å. Ge is bonded in a distorted body-centered cubic geometry to six equivalent Mg and eight equivalent Pd atoms.
