YbPdBi is half-Heusler structured and crystallizes in the cubic F-43m space group. Yb(1) is bonded to four equivalent Pd(1) and six equivalent Bi(1) atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner and face-sharing YbBi6Pd4 tetrahedra. Pd(1) is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to four equivalent Yb(1) and four equivalent Bi(1) atoms. Bi(1) is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Yb(1) and four equivalent Pd(1) atoms.
