Materials Data on HoAgSe2 by Materials Project
AgHoSe2 is Caswellsilverite-like structured and crystallizes in the triclinic P1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Ho3+ sites. In the first Ho3+ site, Ho3+ is bonded to six Se2- atoms to form HoSe6 octahedra that share corners with two equivalent AgSe6 octahedra, corners with four equivalent HoSe6 octahedra, edges with four equivalent HoSe6 octahedra, and edges with eight AgSe6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 1–7°. There are a spread of Ho–Se bond distances ranging from 2.85–2.87 Å. In the second Ho3+ site, Ho3+ is bonded to six Se2- atoms to form HoSe6 octahedra that share corners with two equivalent AgSe6 octahedra, corners with four equivalent HoSe6 octahedra, edges with four equivalent HoSe6 octahedra, and edges with eight AgSe6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 1–7°. There are one shorter (2.85 Å) and five longer (2.86 Å) Ho–Se bond lengths. There are two inequivalent Ag1+ sites. In the first Ag1+ site, Ag1+ is bonded to six Se2- atoms to form AgSe6 octahedra that share corners with two equivalent HoSe6 octahedra, corners with four equivalent AgSe6 octahedra, edges with four equivalent AgSe6 octahedra, and edges with eight HoSe6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 1–7°. There are a spread of Ag–Se bond distances ranging from 2.85–3.19 Å. In the second Ag1+ site, Ag1+ is bonded to six Se2- atoms to form AgSe6 octahedra that share corners with two equivalent HoSe6 octahedra, corners with four equivalent AgSe6 octahedra, edges with four equivalent AgSe6 octahedra, and edges with eight HoSe6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 1–8°. There are a spread of Ag–Se bond distances ranging from 2.83–3.21 Å. There are four inequivalent Se2- sites. In the first Se2- site, Se2- is bonded to three Ho3+ and three Ag1+ atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing SeHo3Ag3 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 1–7°. In the second Se2- site, Se2- is bonded to three Ho3+ and three Ag1+ atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing SeHo3Ag3 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 1–8°. In the third Se2- site, Se2- is bonded to three Ho3+ and three Ag1+ atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing SeHo3Ag3 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 0–7°. In the fourth Se2- site, Se2- is bonded to three Ho3+ and three Ag1+ atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing SeHo3Ag3 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 0–7°.
