The crystal structure described by LiCdP is half-Heusler structured and crystallizes in the cubic F-43m space group. Li(1) is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to four equivalent Cd(1) and four equivalent P(1) atoms. Cd(1) is bonded to four equivalent Li(1) and six equivalent P(1) atoms to form distorted CdLi4P6 tetrahedra that share corners with four equivalent P(1)Li4Cd6 tetrahedra, corners with six equivalent Cd(1)Li4P6 tetrahedra, edges with six equivalent P(1)Li4Cd6 tetrahedra, and faces with twelve equivalent Cd(1)Li4P6 tetrahedra. P(1) is bonded to four equivalent Li(1) and six equivalent Cd(1) atoms to form distorted PLi4Cd6 tetrahedra that share corners with four equivalent Cd(1)Li4P6 tetrahedra, corners with six equivalent P(1)Li4Cd6 tetrahedra, edges with six equivalent Cd(1)Li4P6 tetrahedra, and faces with twelve equivalent P(1)Li4Cd6 tetrahedra. is represented by the CIF file [CIF]
