Materials Data on Bi4(TeSe)3 by Materials Project
Bi4(TeSe)3 crystallizes in the monoclinic Cm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are four inequivalent Bi3+ sites. In the first Bi3+ site, Bi3+ is bonded to one Te2- and five Se2- atoms to form BiTeSe5 octahedra that share corners with three equivalent BiTe3Se3 octahedra and edges with nine BiTeSe5 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 1°. The Bi–Te bond length is 3.10 Å. There are a spread of Bi–Se bond distances ranging from 2.91–3.12 Å. In the second Bi3+ site, Bi3+ is bonded to two equivalent Te2- and four Se2- atoms to form BiTe2Se4 octahedra that share corners with three equivalent BiTe3Se3 octahedra and edges with nine BiTeSe5 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 1°. Both Bi–Te bond lengths are 3.07 Å. There are a spread of Bi–Se bond distances ranging from 2.88–3.14 Å. In the third Bi3+ site, Bi3+ is bonded to three Te2- and three Se2- atoms to form BiTe3Se3 octahedra that share corners with three equivalent BiTe2Se4 octahedra and edges with nine BiTeSe5 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 1°. All Bi–Te bond lengths are 3.07 Å. There are two shorter (3.11 Å) and one longer (3.12 Å) Bi–Se bond lengths. In the fourth Bi3+ site, Bi3+ is bonded to three Te2- and three Se2- atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing BiTe3Se3 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 1°. There are two shorter (3.06 Å) and one longer (3.07 Å) Bi–Te bond lengths. There are one shorter (3.13 Å) and two longer (3.15 Å) Bi–Se bond lengths. There are three inequivalent Te2- sites. In the first Te2- site, Te2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to three Bi3+ atoms. In the second Te2- site, Te2- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to three Bi3+ and one Se2- atom. The Te–Se bond length is 4.08 Å. In the third Te2- site, Te2- is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to three Bi3+ atoms. There are three inequivalent Se2- sites. In the first Se2- site, Se2- is bonded to six Bi3+ atoms to form edge-sharing SeBi6 octahedra. In the second Se2- site, Se2- is bonded to six Bi3+ atoms to form edge-sharing SeBi6 octahedra. In the third Se2- site, Se2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to three Bi3+ and one Te2- atom.
