Materials Data on Yb2Ge6Pd by Materials Project
Yb2PdGe6 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Cmce space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Yb is bonded to two equivalent Pd and ten Ge atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner, edge, and face-sharing YbGe10Pd2 cuboctahedra. There are one shorter (3.13 Å) and one longer (3.14 Å) Yb–Pd bond lengths. There are a spread of Yb–Ge bond distances ranging from 3.06–3.41 Å. Pd is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Yb and five Ge atoms. There are a spread of Pd–Ge bond distances ranging from 2.49–2.57 Å. There are five inequivalent Ge sites. In the first Ge site, Ge is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Yb and two Ge atoms. There are one shorter (2.49 Å) and one longer (2.53 Å) Ge–Ge bond lengths. In the second Ge site, Ge is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Yb, one Pd, and three Ge atoms. There are one shorter (2.55 Å) and two longer (2.58 Å) Ge–Ge bond lengths. In the third Ge site, Ge is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Yb, one Pd, and three Ge atoms. Both Ge–Ge bond lengths are 2.58 Å. In the fourth Ge site, Ge is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Yb, one Pd, and two Ge atoms. The Ge–Ge bond length is 2.49 Å. In the fifth Ge site, Ge is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Yb, one Pd, and three Ge atoms. The Ge–Ge bond length is 2.52 Å.
