Materials Data on GdAg3 by Materials Project
GdAg3 is beta Cu3Ti-like structured and crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3/mmc space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Gd is bonded to twelve equivalent Ag atoms to form a mixture of face and corner-sharing GdAg12 cuboctahedra. There are six shorter (3.15 Å) and six longer (3.18 Å) Gd–Ag bond lengths. Ag is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Gd atoms.
