Materials Data on GdScSi by Materials Project
GdScSi crystallizes in the tetragonal I4/mmm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Gd is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to five equivalent Si atoms. There are one shorter (3.08 Å) and four longer (3.10 Å) Gd–Si bond lengths. Sc is bonded in a distorted square co-planar geometry to four equivalent Si atoms. All Sc–Si bond lengths are 2.88 Å. Si is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to five equivalent Gd and four equivalent Sc atoms.
