Materials Data on Tb3Ga5 by Materials Project
Tb3Ga5 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Tb sites. In the first Tb site, Tb is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to nine Ga atoms. There are a spread of Tb–Ga bond distances ranging from 2.87–3.30 Å. In the second Tb site, Tb is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to ten Ga atoms. There are a spread of Tb–Ga bond distances ranging from 3.00–3.33 Å. There are four inequivalent Ga sites. In the first Ga site, Ga is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to six Tb and four Ga atoms. There are a spread of Ga–Ga bond distances ranging from 2.67–2.90 Å. In the second Ga site, Ga is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to five Tb and five Ga atoms. There are a spread of Ga–Ga bond distances ranging from 2.67–3.08 Å. In the third Ga site, Ga is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to six Tb and four Ga atoms. In the fourth Ga site, Ga is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to six Tb and three Ga atoms.
