Materials Data on PrCdGa by Materials Project
PrCdGa crystallizes in the hexagonal P-62m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Pr is bonded in a 11-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Cd and five Ga atoms. There are two shorter (3.37 Å) and four longer (3.56 Å) Pr–Cd bond lengths. There are one shorter (3.16 Å) and four longer (3.19 Å) Pr–Ga bond lengths. Cd is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Pr, two equivalent Cd, and four Ga atoms. Both Cd–Cd bond lengths are 3.21 Å. There are two shorter (2.89 Å) and two longer (2.92 Å) Cd–Ga bond lengths. There are two inequivalent Ga sites. In the first Ga site, Ga is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Pr and six equivalent Cd atoms. In the second Ga site, Ga is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Pr and three equivalent Cd atoms.
