The structure described by Er3(Pd10Si3)2 crystallizes in the cubic Fm-3m space group. There are two inequivalent Er sites. In the first Er site, Er(1) is bonded in a cuboctahedral geometry to twelve equivalent Pd(1) atoms. In the second Er site, Er(2) is bonded in a distorted tetrahedral geometry to four equivalent Pd(2) atoms. There are two inequivalent Pd sites. In the first Pd site, Pd(1) is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to one Er(1) and two equivalent Si(1) atoms. In the second Pd site, Pd(2) is bonded to one Er(2) and three equivalent Si(1) atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing PdErSi3 tetrahedra. Si(1) is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Pd(1) and four equivalent Pd(2) atoms. is represented by the CIF file [CIF]
