KCdN3 is (Cubic) Perovskite structured and crystallizes in the cubic Pm-3m space group. K(1) is bonded to twelve equivalent N(1) atoms to form KN12 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent K(1)N12 cuboctahedra, faces with six equivalent K(1)N12 cuboctahedra, and faces with eight equivalent Cd(1)N6 octahedra. Cd(1) is bonded to six equivalent N(1) atoms to form CdN6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent Cd(1)N6 octahedra and faces with eight equivalent K(1)N12 cuboctahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra are not tilted. N(1) is bonded to four equivalent K(1) and two equivalent Cd(1) atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner, edge, and face-sharing NK4Cd2 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 0-60°.
