The material structure described by Gd(AuSi)2 crystallizes in the tetragonal I4/mmm space group. Gd(1) is bonded in a 16-coordinate geometry to eight equivalent Au(1) and eight equivalent Si(1) atoms. Au(1) is bonded to four equivalent Gd(1) and four equivalent Si(1) atoms to form a mixture of distorted face, corner, and edge-sharing AuGd4Si4 tetrahedra. Si(1) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Gd(1), four equivalent Au(1), and one Si(1) atom. is represented by the Crystallographic Information File (CIF) [CIF]
