title: Pd(2.28(1))Zn(10.37(1))Al(0.35(1)), a ternary γ-brass-type structure.
abstract: Palladium zinc aluminium (2.28/10.37/0.35), Pd(2.28(1))Zn(10.37(1))Al(0.35(1)), represents the upper limit of Al substitution into the parent cubic γ-brass Pd(2+x)Zn(11-x). The structure can be described in terms of a 26-atom cluster consisting of an inner tetra-hedron (IT), an outer tetra-hedron (OT), an octa-hedron (OH) and a cubocta-hedron (CO), with the substituted Al atoms partially occupying the IT (.3m) and CO (..m) sites.
