Materials Data on ErCdIn by Materials Project
ErCdIn crystallizes in the trigonal P-3m1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Er is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Cd and six equivalent In atoms. There are three shorter (3.19 Å) and three longer (3.44 Å) Er–Cd bond lengths. There are three shorter (3.22 Å) and three longer (3.61 Å) Er–In bond lengths. Cd is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Er, three equivalent Cd, and one In atom. All Cd–Cd bond lengths are 2.85 Å. The Cd–In bond length is 3.08 Å. In is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Er, one Cd, and three equivalent In atoms. All In–In bond lengths are 2.90 Å.
