Materials Data on NdCd2Pd by Materials Project
NdPdCd2 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Cmcm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Nd is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Pd and ten equivalent Cd atoms. There are one shorter (2.94 Å) and two longer (3.05 Å) Nd–Pd bond lengths. There are six shorter (3.42 Å) and four longer (3.47 Å) Nd–Cd bond lengths. Pd is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Nd and six equivalent Cd atoms. There are four shorter (2.86 Å) and two longer (2.87 Å) Pd–Cd bond lengths. Cd is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to five equivalent Nd and three equivalent Pd atoms.
