“…Recently, we reported the phase CaAg 0.98 Ge 1.02 in an isomorphic superstructure of the TiNiSi type with a tripling of the a-axis (i 3 , minimal isomorphic subgroup of index 3) and, an almost complete ordering of the atomic sites. [15] The occurrence of the superstructure in this structural family is well known, like for instance EuAuGe and CaPdGe (i 2 , space group Imm2), [16] YPdSi [7] (i 2 , S.G. Pmmn), as well as CaCuGe (i 3 , S.G. Pmna) and YbAuSn (i 3 , S.G. Imm2), or even CaAuSn (i 5, S.G. Pmna). [6] But, the origin of the superstructure has been scarcely discussed.…”
