The material described by La2CdTe4 crystallizes in the tetragonal I-42d space group. La(1) is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight equivalent Te(1) atoms. Cd(1) is bonded in a square co-planar geometry to four equivalent Te(1) atoms. Te(1) is bonded to four equivalent La(1) and one Cd(1) atom to form a mixture of distorted edge, face, and corner-sharing TeLa4Cd trigonal bipyramids. is represented by the CIF card [CIF]
