Materials Data on Te3Pd10 by Materials Project
Pd10Te3 crystallizes in the cubic Fd-3m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Pd sites. In the first Pd site, Pd is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Pd and one Te atom. There are three shorter (2.74 Å) and three longer (2.76 Å) Pd–Pd bond lengths. The Pd–Te bond length is 2.54 Å. In the second Pd site, Pd is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Pd and two equivalent Te atoms. Both Pd–Te bond lengths are 2.68 Å. There are two inequivalent Te sites. In the first Te site, Te is bonded in a tetrahedral geometry to four equivalent Pd atoms. In the second Te site, Te is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Pd atoms.
