Materials Data on VGaNi2 by Materials Project
VNi2Ga is Heusler structured and crystallizes in the cubic Fm-3m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. V is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight equivalent Ni atoms. All V–Ni bond lengths are 2.51 Å. Ni is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to four equivalent V and four equivalent Ga atoms. All Ni–Ga bond lengths are 2.51 Å. Ga is bonded in a distorted body-centered cubic geometry to eight equivalent Ni atoms.
