Materials Data on ZnNi2Ge by Materials Project
Ni2ZnGe is Heusler structured and crystallizes in the cubic Fm-3m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Ni is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to four equivalent Zn and four equivalent Ge atoms. All Ni–Zn bond lengths are 2.52 Å. All Ni–Ge bond lengths are 2.52 Å. Zn is bonded in a distorted body-centered cubic geometry to eight equivalent Ni and six equivalent Ge atoms. All Zn–Ge bond lengths are 2.91 Å. Ge is bonded in a distorted body-centered cubic geometry to eight equivalent Ni and six equivalent Zn atoms.
