Materials Data on Cu2SiS3 by Materials Project
Cu2SiS3 is Enargite-like structured and crystallizes in the trigonal P31m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Cu1+ sites. In the first Cu1+ site, Cu1+ is bonded to four S2- atoms to form CuS4 tetrahedra that share corners with four equivalent SiS4 tetrahedra and corners with eight CuS4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Cu–S bond distances ranging from 2.21–2.29 Å. In the second Cu1+ site, Cu1+ is bonded to four S2- atoms to form CuS4 tetrahedra that share corners with six equivalent CuS4 tetrahedra and corners with six equivalent SiS4 tetrahedra. There are one shorter (2.24 Å) and three longer (2.41 Å) Cu–S bond lengths. Si4+ is bonded to four S2- atoms to form SiS4 tetrahedra that share corners with three equivalent SiS4 tetrahedra and corners with nine CuS4 tetrahedra. There are one shorter (2.06 Å) and three longer (2.26 Å) Si–S bond lengths. There are three inequivalent S2- sites. In the first S2- site, S2- is bonded to two Cu1+ and two equivalent Si4+ atoms to form corner-sharing SCu2Si2 tetrahedra. In the second S2- site, S2- is bonded to three equivalent Cu1+ and one Si4+ atom to form corner-sharing SCu3Si tetrahedra. In the third S2- site, S2- is bonded to four Cu1+ atoms to form corner-sharing SCu4 tetrahedra.
