CaCdGe crystallizes in the hexagonal P-62m space group. Ca(1) is bonded in a 11-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Cd(1), one Ge(2), and four equivalent Ge(1) atoms. Cd(1) is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Ca(1), two equivalent Cd(1), two equivalent Ge(1), and two equivalent Ge(2) atoms. There are two inequivalent Ge sites. In the first Ge site, Ge(2) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Ca(1) and six equivalent Cd(1) atoms. In the second Ge site, Ge(1) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Ca(1) and three equivalent Cd(1) atoms.
CaCdGe crystallizes in the hexagonal P-62m space group. Ca(1) is bonded in a 11-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Cd(1), one Ge(2), and four equivalent Ge(1) atoms. There are two shorter (3.27 Å) and four longer (3.49 Å) Ca(1)-Cd(1) bond lengths. The Ca(1)-Ge(2) bond length is 3.07 Å. All Ca(1)-Ge(1) bond lengths are 3.13 Å. Cd(1) is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Ca(1), two equivalent Cd(1), two equivalent Ge(1), and two equivalent Ge(2) atoms. Both Cd(1)-Cd(1) bond lengths are 3.22 Å. Both Cd(1)-Ge(1) bond lengths are 2.77 Å. Both Cd(1)-Ge(2) bond lengths are 2.91 Å. There are two inequivalent Ge sites. In the first Ge site, Ge(2) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Ca(1) and six equivalent Cd(1) atoms. In the second Ge site, Ge(1) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Ca(1) and three equivalent Cd(1) atoms.
