Materials Data on LaPd3S4 by Materials Project
LaPd3S4 crystallizes in the cubic Pm-3n space group. The structure is three-dimensional. La2+ is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight equivalent S2- atoms. All La–S bond lengths are 2.94 Å. Pd2+ is bonded in a square co-planar geometry to four equivalent S2- atoms. All Pd–S bond lengths are 2.40 Å. S2- is bonded to two equivalent La2+ and three equivalent Pd2+ atoms to form a mixture of corner and edge-sharing SLa2Pd3 trigonal bipyramids.
