Sc3TaGe is (Cubic) Perovskite structured and crystallizes in the trigonal R3m space group. Sc(1) is bonded in a linear geometry to four equivalent Ta(1) and two equivalent Ge(1) atoms. There is one shorter (3.53 Å) and three longer (3.54 Å) Sc(1)-Ta(1) bond lengths. Both Sc(1)-Ge(1) bond lengths are 2.50 Å. Ta(1) is bonded to twelve equivalent Sc(1) atoms to form TaSc12 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent Ta(1)Sc12 cuboctahedra, faces with six equivalent Ta(1)Sc12 cuboctahedra, and faces with eight equivalent Ge(1)Sc6 octahedra. Ge(1) is bonded to six equivalent Sc(1) atoms to form GeSc6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent Ge(1)Sc6 octahedra and faces with eight equivalent Ta(1)Sc12 cuboctahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra are not tilted.
