Materials Data on ErAsPd by Materials Project

ErPdAs crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Er is bonded in a 11-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Pd and five equivalent As atoms. There are a spread of Er–Pd bond distances ranging from 3.05–3.40 Å. There are a spread of Er–As bond distances ranging from 2.89–2.98 Å. Pd is bonded to six equivalent Er, two equivalent Pd, and four equivalent As atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge, face, and corner-sharing PdEr6As4Pd2 cuboctahedra. Both Pd–Pd bond lengths are 3.03 Å. There are a spread of Pd–As bond distances ranging from 2.62–2.81 Å. As is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to five equivalent Er and four equivalent Pd atoms.
