Powder diffraction data of the Ho2AlGe3 ternary compound
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 15 October 2013
Abstract
A new ternary compound Ho2AlGe3 was synthesized and studied by means of X-ray powder diffraction technique. The powder pattern of Ho2AlGe3 was indexed and refined, giving an orthorhombic structure, space group Pnma (No. 62) with the Y2AlGe3 structure type: a = 6.743 98(8) Å, b = 4.163 73(5) Å, c = 17.5834(2) Å, V = 493.74 Å3, Z = 4, ρ x = 7.73 g cm−3, F 30 = 202.7 (0.004, 37), and RIR = 1.21.
