Materials Data on GdPd2Pt by Materials Project
GdPtPd2 is Uranium Silicide-derived structured and crystallizes in the tetragonal P4/mmm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Gd is bonded to four equivalent Pt and eight equivalent Pd atoms to form GdPd8Pt4 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent GdPd8Pt4 cuboctahedra, edges with eight equivalent PtGd4Pd8 cuboctahedra, edges with sixteen equivalent PdGd4Pd4Pt4 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent PtGd4Pd8 cuboctahedra, faces with six equivalent GdPd8Pt4 cuboctahedra, and faces with eight equivalent PdGd4Pd4Pt4 cuboctahedra. All Gd–Pt bond lengths are 2.94 Å. All Gd–Pd bond lengths are 2.93 Å. Pt is bonded to four equivalent Gd and eight equivalent Pd atoms to form PtGd4Pd8 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent PtGd4Pd8 cuboctahedra, edges with eight equivalent GdPd8Pt4 cuboctahedra, edges with sixteen equivalent PdGd4Pd4Pt4 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent GdPd8Pt4 cuboctahedra, faces with six equivalent PtGd4Pd8 cuboctahedra, and faces with eight equivalent PdGd4Pd4Pt4 cuboctahedra. All Pt–Pd bond lengths are 2.93 Å. Pd is bonded to four equivalent Gd, four equivalent Pt, and four equivalent Pd atoms to form distorted PdGd4Pd4Pt4 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent PdGd4Pd4Pt4 cuboctahedra, edges with eight equivalent GdPd8Pt4 cuboctahedra, edges with eight equivalent PtGd4Pd8 cuboctahedra, edges with eight equivalent PdGd4Pd4Pt4 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent GdPd8Pt4 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent PtGd4Pd8 cuboctahedra, and faces with ten equivalent PdGd4Pd4Pt4 cuboctahedra. All Pd–Pd bond lengths are 2.94 Å.
