Materials Data on V6GaSn by Materials Project

V6GaSn crystallizes in the cubic Pm-3 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. V is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to two equivalent V, two equivalent Ga, and two equivalent Sn atoms. There are one shorter (2.36 Å) and one longer (2.53 Å) V–V bond lengths. Both V–Ga bond lengths are 2.71 Å. Both V–Sn bond lengths are 2.75 Å. Ga is bonded to twelve equivalent V atoms to form GaV12 cuboctahedra that share edges with six equivalent GaV12 cuboctahedra and faces with eight equivalent SnV12 cuboctahedra. Sn is bonded to twelve equivalent V atoms to form SnV12 cuboctahedra that share edges with six equivalent SnV12 cuboctahedra and faces with eight equivalent GaV12 cuboctahedra.
