The Materials Project

NdCd2 crystallizes in the trigonal P-3m1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Nd is bonded to two equivalent Nd and twelve equivalent Cd atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner, edge, and face-sharing NdNd2Cd12 cuboctahedra. Both Nd–Nd bond lengths are 3.45 Å. There are six shorter (3.41 Å) and six longer (3.43 Å) Nd–Cd bond lengths. Cd is bonded in a 11-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Nd and five equivalent Cd atoms. There are three shorter (2.95 Å) and two longer (3.45 Å) Cd–Cd bond lengths.
