Materials Data on Pm3Gd by Materials Project

Abstract

GdPm3 is Uranium Silicide structured and crystallizes in the cubic Pm-3m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Gd is bonded to twelve equivalent Pm atoms to form GdPm12 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent GdPm12 cuboctahedra, edges with twenty-four equivalent PmPm8Gd4 cuboctahedra, faces with six equivalent GdPm12 cuboctahedra, and faces with twelve equivalent PmPm8Gd4 cuboctahedra. All Gd–Pm bond lengths are 3.64 Å. Pm is bonded to four equivalent Gd and eight equivalent Pm atoms to form PmPm8Gd4 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent PmPm8Gd4 cuboctahedra, edges with eight equivalent GdPm12 cuboctahedra, edges with sixteen equivalent PmPm8Gd4 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent GdPm12 cuboctahedra, and faces with fourteen equivalent PmPm8Gd4 cuboctahedra. All Pm–Pm bond lengths are 3.64 Å.
