AuCdSn is half-Heusler structured and crystallizes in the cubic F-43m space group. Au(1) is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to four equivalent Cd(1) and four equivalent Sn(1) atoms. Cd(1) is bonded to four equivalent Au(1) and six equivalent Sn(1) atoms to form distorted CdSn6Au4 tetrahedra that share corners with four equivalent Sn(1)Cd6Au4 tetrahedra, corners with six equivalent Cd(1)Sn6Au4 tetrahedra, edges with six equivalent Sn(1)Cd6Au4 tetrahedra, and faces with twelve equivalent Cd(1)Sn6Au4 tetrahedra. Sn(1) is bonded to four equivalent Au(1) and six equivalent Cd(1) atoms to form distorted SnCd6Au4 tetrahedra that share corners with four equivalent Cd(1)Sn6Au4 tetrahedra, corners with six equivalent Sn(1)Cd6Au4 tetrahedra, edges with six equivalent Cd(1)Sn6Au4 tetrahedra, and faces with twelve equivalent Sn(1)Cd6Au4 tetrahedra.
