Materials Data on YbMgPd by Materials Project
YbPdMg crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Mg is bonded to four equivalent Pd atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing MgPd4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Mg–Pd bond distances ranging from 2.75–2.82 Å. Yb is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to five equivalent Pd atoms. There are a spread of Yb–Pd bond distances ranging from 3.06–3.12 Å. Pd is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Mg and five equivalent Yb atoms.
