A new germanide, SrGe6-delta (delta congruent to 0.5), was synthesized by the reaction of Sr and Ge mixtures under a pressure of 5 GPa at 1200 degreesC. It crystallized in the orthorhombic space group Cmcm (No. 63) with a = 4.0981(6) A, b = 11.159(1) Angstrom, c = 12.6825(8) Angstrom, V = 580.0(1) Angstrom(3), and Z = 4. SrGe6-delta is composed of a Ge covalent network having a cagelike structure and Sr atoms situated in the cages, Each Ge atom is coordinated by four neighboring Ge atoms. The coordination polyhedra are fairly distorted from an ideal tetrahedron, and the Ge network contains vacancies and disordering. The resistivity shows metallic, behavior down to 2 K, and the positive thermoelectric power indicates the dominant carriers to be holes.
