Materials Data on Hf2Cd by Materials Project
Hf2Cd crystallizes in the tetragonal I4/mmm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Hf is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to eight equivalent Hf and four equivalent Cd atoms. There are four shorter (3.06 Å) and four longer (3.28 Å) Hf–Hf bond lengths. All Hf–Cd bond lengths are 3.11 Å. Cd is bonded in a distorted body-centered cubic geometry to eight equivalent Hf atoms.
