Ge is beta Sn structured and crystallizes in the tetragonal I4_1/amd space group. Ge(1) is bonded to six equivalent Ge(1) atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner and edge-sharing GeGe6 pentagonal pyramids.
Ge is beta Sn structured and crystallizes in the tetragonal I4_1/amd space group. Ge(1) is bonded to six equivalent Ge(1) atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner and edge-sharing GeGe6 pentagonal pyramids. There are four shorter (2.67 Å) and two longer (2.79 Å) Ge(1)-Ge(1) bond lengths.
