Materials Data on Nd2Sb3Pd by Materials Project
Nd2PdSb3 crystallizes in the tetragonal P4/mmm space group. The structure is one-dimensional and consists of one Nd2PdSb3 ribbon oriented in the (0, 0, 1) direction. Nd3+ is bonded in a linear geometry to one Pd2+ and one Sb+2.67- atom. The Nd–Pd bond length is 2.54 Å. The Nd–Sb bond length is 2.81 Å. Pd2+ is bonded in a linear geometry to two equivalent Nd3+ atoms. There are two inequivalent Sb+2.67- sites. In the first Sb+2.67- site, Sb+2.67- is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one Nd3+ and one Sb+2.67- atom. The Sb–Sb bond length is 2.66 Å. In the second Sb+2.67- site, Sb+2.67- is bonded in a linear geometry to two equivalent Sb+2.67- atoms.
