The compound described by YbCd3 is alpha bismuth trifluoride structured and crystallizes in the cubic Fm-3m space group. Yb(1) is bonded in a distorted body-centered cubic geometry to six equivalent Cd(2) and eight equivalent Cd(1) atoms. There are two inequivalent Cd sites. In the first Cd site, Cd(1) is bonded to four equivalent Yb(1) and four equivalent Cd(2) atoms to form a mixture of distorted face, corner, and edge-sharing CdYb4Cd4 tetrahedra. In the second Cd site, Cd(2) is bonded in a 14-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Yb(1) and eight equivalent Cd(1) atoms. is represented by the Crystallographic Information File (CIF) [CIF]
