Abstract
The binary bismuthides Nd3Bi7 and Sm3Bi7 were synthesized and structurally characterized for the first time. The results from the calorimetric analysis show that both compounds are stable only up to about 500 °C, which may explain why they were overlooked during the original assessment of the corresponding phase diagrams.
