Materials Data on GdN by Materials Project
GdN is Halite, Rock Salt structured and crystallizes in the cubic Fm-3m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Gd3+ is bonded to six equivalent N3- atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing GdN6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 0°. All Gd–N bond lengths are 2.49 Å. N3- is bonded to six equivalent Gd3+ atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing NGd6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 0°.
