Materials Data on TaNi2 by Materials Project
Ni2Ta is Titanium Disilicide-like structured and crystallizes in the tetragonal I4/mmm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Ta is bonded in a distorted q6 geometry to ten equivalent Ni atoms. There are eight shorter (2.60 Å) and two longer (2.63 Å) Ta–Ni bond lengths. Ni is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to five equivalent Ta and five equivalent Ni atoms. There are four shorter (2.60 Å) and one longer (2.62 Å) Ni–Ni bond lengths.
