The material structure described by VGe3 crystallizes in the cubic Pm-3n space group. V(1) is bonded to twelve equivalent Ge(1) atoms to form a mixture of edge and face-sharing VGe12 cuboctahedra. Ge(1) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to four equivalent V(1) and two equivalent Ge(1) atoms. is represented by the CIF file [CIF]
