Abstract Single crystals of a new germanium clathrate, Ba 24 Ge 100 , were synthesized by the Czochralsky pulling method using a tetra-arc furnace under an Ar atmosphere. The crystal structure was studied by X-ray single-crystal analysis. The clathrate crystallized in the cubic space group P 4 1 32 with a =14.5635(7) A, V =3088.9(2) A 3 . The final refinement using 903 unique reflections converged at R =0.032 and R w =0.036. In the structure, germanium atoms are linked by sp 3 σ -bonds to form a three-dimensional network, in which barium atoms are enclosed. There are three sites for the barium atoms having different coordination environments. One site is in a Ge 20 dodecahedron and the others are coordinated with 20 Ge atoms and 8 Ge atoms, respectively.
