Materials Data on Ta2CdBi by Materials Project

Abstract

Ta2CdBi crystallizes in the cubic F-43m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Ta sites. In the first Ta site, Ta is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Ta, four equivalent Cd, and six equivalent Bi atoms. All Ta–Ta bond lengths are 3.04 Å. All Ta–Cd bond lengths are 3.04 Å. All Ta–Bi bond lengths are 3.51 Å. In the second Ta site, Ta is bonded to four equivalent Ta and four equivalent Bi atoms to form distorted edge-sharing TaTa4Bi4 tetrahedra. All Ta–Bi bond lengths are 3.04 Å. Cd is bonded in a distorted body-centered cubic geometry to four equivalent Ta and four equivalent Bi atoms. All Cd–Bi bond lengths are 3.04 Å. Bi is bonded in a distorted body-centered cubic geometry to ten Ta and four equivalent Cd atoms.
