Materials Data on CeTmS3 by Materials Project
CeTmS3 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are three inequivalent Tm3+ sites. In the first Tm3+ site, Tm3+ is bonded to seven S2- atoms to form distorted TmS7 pentagonal bipyramids that share corners with two equivalent TmS6 octahedra and edges with four equivalent TmS7 pentagonal bipyramids. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 49°. There are a spread of Tm–S bond distances ranging from 2.71–2.80 Å. In the second Tm3+ site, Tm3+ is bonded to six S2- atoms to form TmS6 octahedra that share a cornercorner with one TmS6 octahedra, corners with two equivalent TmS7 pentagonal bipyramids, and edges with two equivalent TmS6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 64°. There are a spread of Tm–S bond distances ranging from 2.63–2.77 Å. In the third Tm3+ site, Tm3+ is bonded to six S2- atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing TmS6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 64°. There are a spread of Tm–S bond distances ranging from 2.61–2.75 Å. There are three inequivalent Ce3+ sites. In the first Ce3+ site, Ce3+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight S2- atoms.

In the fourth S2- site, S2- is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to one Tm3+ and four Ce3+ atoms. In the fifth S2- site, S2- is bonded to two Tm3+ and two equivalent Ce3+ atoms to form SCe2Tm2 tetrahedra that share corners with six SCe4Tm square pyramids, corners with two equivalent SCe2Tm2 tetrahedra, corners with six SCe3Tm2 trigonal bipyramids, corners with four SCe2Tm2 trigonal pyramids, an edgeedge with one SCe4Tm square pyramid, and an edgeedge with one SCe3Tm2 trigonal bipyramid. In the sixth S2- site, S2- is bonded to two equivalent Tm3+ and three Ce3+ atoms to form distorted SCe3Tm2 trigonal bipyramids that share corners with two equivalent SCe2Tm3 square pyramids, corners with four equivalent SCe2Tm2 tetrahedra, corners with four SCe2Tm2 trigonal pyramids, edges with three SCe4Tm square pyramids, edges with four SCe3Tm2 trigonal bipyramids, and an edgeedge with one SCeTm3 trigonal pyramid.
