The Materials Project

GdSi2 is hexagonal omega structure-like structured and crystallizes in the tetragonal I4_1/amd space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Gd is bonded to twelve equivalent Si atoms to form a mixture of edge and face-sharing GdSi12 cuboctahedra. There are eight shorter (3.11 Å) and four longer (3.13 Å) Gd–Si bond lengths. Si is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Gd and three equivalent Si atoms. There are two shorter (2.36 Å) and one longer (2.37 Å) Si–Si bond lengths.
