Аннотация:Recently discovered bismuthides with the BaAu2Sb2 structure type demonstrate interestingproperties and electronic structures. Here, we report successful crystal growth, crystal structure, bandstructure calculations, and DOS for BaAg1.8Bi2 and BaAu1.8Bi2. Grown crystals were characterized bya combination of single crystal X-ray diffraction and EDX spectroscopy. Both compounds crystallizedin a new variation of BaAu2Sb2 structure type and demonstrated metallic properties according to ourDFT calculations.
