Materials Data on CePd2Pt by Materials Project

Abstract

CePtPd2 is Uranium Silicide-derived structured and crystallizes in the tetragonal P4/mmm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Ce is bonded to four equivalent Pt and eight equivalent Pd atoms to form CePd8Pt4 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent CePd8Pt4 cuboctahedra, edges with eight equivalent PtCe4Pd8 cuboctahedra, edges with sixteen equivalent PdCe4Pd4Pt4 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent PtCe4Pd8 cuboctahedra, faces with six equivalent CePd8Pt4 cuboctahedra, and faces with eight equivalent PdCe4Pd4Pt4 cuboctahedra. All Ce–Pt bond lengths are 2.95 Å. All Ce–Pd bond lengths are 2.95 Å. Pt is bonded to four equivalent Ce and eight equivalent Pd atoms to form PtCe4Pd8 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent PtCe4Pd8 cuboctahedra, edges with eight equivalent CePd8Pt4 cuboctahedra, edges with sixteen equivalent PdCe4Pd4Pt4 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent CePd8Pt4 cuboctahedra, faces with six equivalent PtCe4Pd8 cuboctahedra, and faces with eight equivalent PdCe4Pd4Pt4 cuboctahedra. All Pt–Pd bond lengths are 2.95 Å. Pd is bonded to four equivalent Ce, four equivalent Pt, and four equivalent Pd atoms to form distorted PdCe4Pd4Pt4 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent PdCe4Pd4Pt4 cuboctahedra, edges with eight equivalent CePd8Pt4 cuboctahedra, edges with eight equivalent PtCe4Pd8 cuboctahedra, edges with eight equivalent PdCe4Pd4Pt4 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent CePd8Pt4 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent PtCe4Pd8 cuboctahedra, and faces with ten equivalent PdCe4Pd4Pt4 cuboctahedra. All Pd–Pd bond lengths are 2.95 Å.
