Materials Data on YGaPd2 by Materials Project
YPd2Ga is delta Molybdenum Boride-derived structured and crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Y is bonded in a 11-coordinate geometry to eight equivalent Pd and three equivalent Ga atoms. There are a spread of Y–Pd bond distances ranging from 3.04–3.23 Å. There are a spread of Y–Ga bond distances ranging from 3.01–3.08 Å. Pd is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Y and three equivalent Ga atoms. There are a spread of Pd–Ga bond distances ranging from 2.56–2.64 Å. Ga is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Y and six equivalent Pd atoms.
