Materials Data on HoPd2 by Materials Project
HoPd2 crystallizes in the tetragonal I4/mmm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Ho is bonded to eight equivalent Pd atoms to form distorted edge-sharing HoPd8 hexagonal bipyramids. All Ho–Pd bond lengths are 2.88 Å. Pd is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Ho and four equivalent Pd atoms. All Pd–Pd bond lengths are 2.79 Å.
