The Materials Project

Cd is alpha La structured and crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3/mmc space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Cd sites. In the first Cd site, Cd is bonded to twelve Cd atoms to form a mixture of edge, corner, and face-sharing CdCd12 cuboctahedra. There are six shorter (3.07 Å) and six longer (3.29 Å) Cd–Cd bond lengths. In the second Cd site, Cd is bonded to twelve Cd atoms to form a mixture of edge, corner, and face-sharing CdCd12 cuboctahedra. All Cd–Cd bond lengths are 3.29 Å.
