Materials Data on Y2MgGa by Materials Project
MgY2Ga crystallizes in the orthorhombic Immm space group. The structure is one-dimensional and consists of two MgY2Ga ribbons oriented in the (1, 0, 0) direction. Mg is bonded in a linear geometry to two equivalent Y atoms. Both Mg–Y bond lengths are 3.45 Å. Y is bonded in a linear geometry to one Mg and one Ga atom. The Y–Ga bond length is 2.80 Å. Ga is bonded in a linear geometry to two equivalent Y atoms.
