Materials Data on CdPt3 by Materials Project
Pt3Cd is Uranium Silicide structured and crystallizes in the cubic Pm-3m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Pt+0.67- is bonded to eight equivalent Pt+0.67- and four equivalent Cd2+ atoms to form distorted PtCd4Pt8 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent PtCd4Pt8 cuboctahedra, edges with eight equivalent CdPt12 cuboctahedra, edges with sixteen equivalent PtCd4Pt8 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent CdPt12 cuboctahedra, and faces with fourteen equivalent PtCd4Pt8 cuboctahedra. All Pt–Pt bond lengths are 2.86 Å. All Pt–Cd bond lengths are 2.86 Å. Cd2+ is bonded to twelve equivalent Pt+0.67- atoms to form CdPt12 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent CdPt12 cuboctahedra, edges with twenty-four equivalent PtCd4Pt8 cuboctahedra, faces with six equivalent CdPt12 cuboctahedra, and faces with twelve equivalent PtCd4Pt8 cuboctahedra.
