Sm3Pd is Uranium Silicide structured and crystallizes in the cubic Pm-3m space group. Sm(1) is bonded in a distorted square co-planar geometry to four equivalent Pd(1) atoms. Pd(1) is bonded to twelve equivalent Sm(1) atoms to form a mixture of face and corner-sharing PdSm12 cuboctahedra.
Sm3Pd is Uranium Silicide structured and crystallizes in the cubic Pm-3m space group. Sm(1) is bonded in a distorted square co-planar geometry to four equivalent Pd(1) atoms. All Sm(1)-Pd(1) bond lengths are 3.39 Å. Pd(1) is bonded to twelve equivalent Sm(1) atoms to form a mixture of face and corner-sharing PdSm12 cuboctahedra.
