Abstract
In a systematic study of phase equilibria in R-M-Ge systems, where R is a rare earth metal (except Sc) and M is an iron triad metal, we have discovered 40 new ternary germanides lying on the RMGe2−RGe2 cross section. The structures of these species proved virtually identical and may be described in the framework of the CeNiSi2 [1] or ZrSi2 structural types [2]. In this work, we compared the crystal structures of all the discovered compounds and established the crystal chemical behavior in the CeNiSi2−ZrSi2 series.
