Materials Data on TbGa2Ni by Materials Project
TbNiGa2 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Cmcm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Tb is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Ni and ten equivalent Ga atoms. There are one shorter (2.85 Å) and two longer (3.02 Å) Tb–Ni bond lengths. There are a spread of Tb–Ga bond distances ranging from 2.98–3.27 Å. Ni is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Tb and six equivalent Ga atoms. All Ni–Ga bond lengths are 2.51 Å. Ga is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to five equivalent Tb and three equivalent Ni atoms.
