PdGe3 is Uranium Silicide structured and crystallizes in the cubic Pm-3m space group. Pd(1) is bonded to twelve equivalent Ge(1) atoms to form PdGe12 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent Pd(1)Ge12 cuboctahedra, edges with twenty-four equivalent Ge(1)Ge8Pd4 cuboctahedra, faces with six equivalent Pd(1)Ge12 cuboctahedra, and faces with twelve equivalent Ge(1)Ge8Pd4 cuboctahedra. Ge(1) is bonded to four equivalent Pd(1) and eight equivalent Ge(1) atoms to form GeGe8Pd4 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent Ge(1)Ge8Pd4 cuboctahedra, edges with eight equivalent Pd(1)Ge12 cuboctahedra, edges with sixteen equivalent Ge(1)Ge8Pd4 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent Pd(1)Ge12 cuboctahedra, and faces with fourteen equivalent Ge(1)Ge8Pd4 cuboctahedra.
