Materials Data on Sm(ZnGa)2 by Materials Project

Sm(ZnGa)2 crystallizes in the tetragonal I4/mmm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Sm is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight equivalent Zn and eight equivalent Ga atoms. All Sm–Zn bond lengths are 3.42 Å. All Sm–Ga bond lengths are 3.20 Å. Zn is bonded to four equivalent Sm and four equivalent Ga atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner, edge, and face-sharing ZnSm4Ga4 tetrahedra. All Zn–Ga bond lengths are 2.56 Å. Ga is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Sm, four equivalent Zn, and one Ga atom. The Ga–Ga bond length is 2.46 Å.
