Materials Data on CeSb2Pd by Materials Project

Abstract

CePdSb2 crystallizes in the tetragonal P4/mmm space group. The structure is one-dimensional and consists of one CePdSb2 ribbon oriented in the (0, 0, 1) direction. Ce3+ is bonded in a linear geometry to one Pd2+ and one Sb+2.50- atom. The Ce–Pd bond length is 2.29 Å. The Ce–Sb bond length is 2.80 Å. Pd2+ is bonded in a linear geometry to one Ce3+ and one Sb+2.50- atom. The Pd–Sb bond length is 2.52 Å. There are three inequivalent Sb+2.50- sites. In the first Sb+2.50- site, Sb+2.50- is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one Ce3+ and one Sb+2.50- atom. The Sb–Sb bond length is 2.71 Å. In the second Sb+2.50- site, Sb+2.50- is bonded in a linear geometry to two equivalent Sb+2.50- atoms. In the third Sb+2.50- site, Sb+2.50- is bonded in a linear geometry to two equivalent Pd2+ atoms.
