Materials Data on DyGePd2 by Materials Project

Abstract

DyPd2Ge is delta Molybdenum Boride-derived structured and crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Dy is bonded in a 11-coordinate geometry to eight equivalent Pd and three equivalent Ge atoms. There are a spread of Dy–Pd bond distances ranging from 3.04–3.17 Å. There are a spread of Dy–Ge bond distances ranging from 3.00–3.07 Å. Pd is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Dy and three equivalent Ge atoms. There are a spread of Pd–Ge bond distances ranging from 2.54–2.67 Å. Ge is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Dy and six equivalent Pd atoms.
