Materials Data on ZrGaCu by Materials Project
ZrCuGa crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3/mmc space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Zr is bonded to six equivalent Cu and six equivalent Ga atoms to form a mixture of edge and face-sharing ZrGa6Cu6 cuboctahedra. All Zr–Cu bond lengths are 2.93 Å. All Zr–Ga bond lengths are 2.93 Å. Cu is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Zr and three equivalent Ga atoms. All Cu–Ga bond lengths are 2.45 Å. Ga is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Zr and three equivalent Cu atoms.
