The material structure described by Yb2Pd3Cd is Heusler-like structured and crystallizes in the trigonal P-3m1 space group. There are three inequivalent Yb sites. In the first Yb site, Yb(1) is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to two equivalent Pd(3) and six Pd(1,1) atoms. In the second Yb site, Yb(2) is bonded in a distorted body-centered cubic geometry to one Pd(1), three equivalent Pd(3), and four equivalent Pd(2) atoms. In the third Yb site, Yb(3) is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to two equivalent Pd(3) and six equivalent Pd(2) atoms. There are four inequivalent Pd sites. In the first Pd site, Pd(1) is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to one Yb(2), three equivalent Yb(1), and four equivalent Cd(1) atoms. In the second Pd site, Pd(2) is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to three equivalent Yb(3), four equivalent Yb(2), and one Cd(1) atom. In the third Pd site, Pd(3) is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to one Yb(1), one Yb(3), three equivalent Yb(2), and three equivalent Cd(1) atoms. In the fourth Pd site, Pd(1) is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to one Yb(2), three equivalent Yb(1), and four equivalent Cd(1) atoms. Cd(1) is bonded in a distorted body-centered cubic geometry to one Pd(2); three equivalent Pd(3); and four Pd(1,1) atoms. is represented by the CIF card [CIF]
