Materials Data on Cr5InS8 by Materials Project
InCr5S8 crystallizes in the monoclinic Cm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are five inequivalent Cr3+ sites. In the first Cr3+ site, Cr3+ is bonded to six S2- atoms to form a mixture of edge, face, and corner-sharing CrS6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 48–51°. There are a spread of Cr–S bond distances ranging from 2.35–2.52 Å. In the second Cr3+ site, Cr3+ is bonded to six S2- atoms to form a mixture of edge, face, and corner-sharing CrS6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 48–51°. There are a spread of Cr–S bond distances ranging from 2.36–2.50 Å. In the third Cr3+ site, Cr3+ is bonded to six S2- atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing CrS6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 48°. There are a spread of Cr–S bond distances ranging from 2.38–2.42 Å. In the fourth Cr3+ site, Cr3+ is bonded to six S2- atoms to form a mixture of edge, face, and corner-sharing CrS6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 48–51°. There are a spread of Cr–S bond distances ranging from 2.35–2.53 Å. In the fifth Cr3+ site, Cr3+ is bonded to six S2- atoms to form a mixture of edge, face, and corner-sharing CrS6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 48–51°. There are a spread of Cr–S bond distances ranging from 2.35–2.53 Å. In1+ is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four S2- atoms. There are two shorter (3.23 Å) and two longer (3.31 Å) In–S bond lengths. There are eight inequivalent S2- sites. In the first S2- site, S2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to three Cr3+ and two equivalent In1+ atoms. In the second S2- site, S2- is bonded in a distorted T-shaped geometry to three Cr3+ atoms. In the third S2- site, S2- is bonded to five Cr3+ atoms to form distorted edge-sharing SCr5 trigonal bipyramids. In the fourth S2- site, S2- is bonded to five Cr3+ atoms to form distorted edge-sharing SCr5 trigonal bipyramids. In the fifth S2- site, S2- is bonded in a rectangular see-saw-like geometry to four Cr3+ atoms. In the sixth S2- site, S2- is bonded in a rectangular see-saw-like geometry to four Cr3+ atoms. In the seventh S2- site, S2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to three Cr3+ and two equivalent In1+ atoms. In the eighth S2- site, S2- is bonded in a distorted T-shaped geometry to three Cr3+ atoms.
