ZrNiSn is half-Heusler structured and crystallizes in the cubic F-43m space group. Zr(1) is bonded to six equivalent Ni(1) and four equivalent Sn(1) atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner and face-sharing ZrNi6Sn4 tetrahedra. Ni(1) is bonded in a distorted q6 geometry to six equivalent Zr(1) and four equivalent Sn(1) atoms. Sn(1) is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to four equivalent Zr(1) and four equivalent Ni(1) atoms.
