Er3Pd2 crystallizes in the tetragonal P4/mbm space group. There are two inequivalent Er sites. In the first Er site, Er(1) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Pd(1) atoms. In the second Er site, Er(2) is bonded in a square co-planar geometry to four equivalent Pd(1) atoms. Pd(1) is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Er(2) and six equivalent Er(1) atoms.
Er3Pd2 crystallizes in the tetragonal P4/mbm space group. There are two inequivalent Er sites. In the first Er site, Er(1) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Pd(1) atoms. There are two shorter (2.94 Å) and four longer (3.02 Å) Er(1)-Pd(1) bond lengths. In the second Er site, Er(2) is bonded in a square co-planar geometry to four equivalent Pd(1) atoms. All Er(2)-Pd(1) bond lengths are 2.98 Å. Pd(1) is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Er(2) and six equivalent Er(1) atoms.
