CdAl2O4 is Spinel structured and crystallizes in the cubic Fd-3m space group. Cd(1) is bonded to four equivalent O(1) atoms to form CdO4 tetrahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent Al(1)O6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 62°. Al(1) is bonded to six equivalent O(1) atoms to form AlO6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent Cd(1)O4 tetrahedra and edges with six equivalent Al(1)O6 octahedra. O(1) is bonded to one Cd(1) and three equivalent Al(1) atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing OAl3Cd tetrahedra.
