Materials Data on HoSbPd by Materials Project
HoPdSb is half-Heusler structured and crystallizes in the cubic F-43m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Ho is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Pd and four equivalent Sb atoms. All Ho–Pd bond lengths are 3.37 Å. All Ho–Sb bond lengths are 2.91 Å. Pd is bonded in a distorted q6 geometry to six equivalent Ho and four equivalent Sb atoms. All Pd–Sb bond lengths are 2.91 Å. Sb is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to four equivalent Ho and four equivalent Pd atoms.
