TbAgS2 crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are four inequivalent Tb3+ sites. In the first Tb3+ site, Tb3+ is bonded to six S2- atoms to form TbS6 octahedra that share corners with four equivalent TbS6 octahedra, corners with two AgS5 trigonal bipyramids, edges with four TbS6 octahedra, and edges with five AgS5 trigonal bipyramids. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 17–22°. There are a spread of Tb–S bond distances ranging from 2.74–2.79 Å. In the second Tb3+ site, Tb3+ is bonded to six S2- atoms to form TbS6 octahedra that share corners with four equivalent TbS6 octahedra, corners with two equivalent AgS5 trigonal bipyramids, edges with four TbS6 octahedra, and edges with six AgS5 trigonal bipyramids. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 17–22°. There are a spread of Tb–S bond distances ranging from 2.74–2.79 Å. In the third Tb3+ site, Tb3+ is bonded to six S2- atoms to form TbS6 octahedra that share corners with four equivalent TbS6 octahedra, corners with two AgS5 trigonal bipyramids, edges with four TbS6 octahedra, and edges with five AgS5 trigonal bipyramids. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 17–22°. There are a spread of Tb–S bond distances ranging from 2.74–2.79 Å. In the fourth Tb3+ site, Tb3+ is bonded to six S2- atoms to form TbS6 octahedra that share corners with four equivalent TbS6 octahedra, corners with three AgS5 trigonal bipyramids, edges with four TbS6 octahedra, and edges with two equivalent AgS5 trigonal bipyramids.
