The material structure described by Mg3ZnC is (Cubic) Perovskite structured and crystallizes in the cubic Pm-3m space group. Mg(1) is bonded in a linear geometry to four equivalent Zn(1) and two equivalent C(1) atoms. Zn(1) is bonded to twelve equivalent Mg(1) atoms to form ZnMg12 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent Zn(1)Mg12 cuboctahedra, faces with six equivalent Zn(1)Mg12 cuboctahedra, and faces with eight equivalent C(1)Mg6 octahedra. C(1) is bonded to six equivalent Mg(1) atoms to form CMg6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent C(1)Mg6 octahedra and faces with eight equivalent Zn(1)Mg12 cuboctahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra are not tilted. is represented by the Crystallographic Information File (CIF) [CIF]
