Materials Data on CdFeCu4(SnSe4)2 by Materials Project
FeCu4Cd(SnSe4)2 is Clathrate-derived structured and crystallizes in the tetragonal P-42m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Fe3+ is bonded to four equivalent Se2- atoms to form FeSe4 tetrahedra that share corners with four equivalent SnSe4 tetrahedra and corners with eight equivalent CuSe4 tetrahedra. All Fe–Se bond lengths are 2.45 Å. Cu+1.25+ is bonded to four Se2- atoms to form CuSe4 tetrahedra that share corners with two equivalent FeSe4 tetrahedra, corners with two equivalent CdSe4 tetrahedra, corners with four equivalent CuSe4 tetrahedra, and corners with four SnSe4 tetrahedra. There are two shorter (2.43 Å) and two longer (2.45 Å) Cu–Se bond lengths. Cd2+ is bonded to four equivalent Se2- atoms to form CdSe4 tetrahedra that share corners with four equivalent SnSe4 tetrahedra and corners with eight equivalent CuSe4 tetrahedra. All Cd–Se bond lengths are 2.66 Å. There are two inequivalent Sn3+ sites. In the first Sn3+ site, Sn3+ is bonded to four equivalent Se2- atoms to form SnSe4 tetrahedra that share corners with four equivalent CdSe4 tetrahedra and corners with eight equivalent CuSe4 tetrahedra. All Sn–Se bond lengths are 2.62 Å. In the second Sn3+ site, Sn3+ is bonded to four equivalent Se2- atoms to form SnSe4 tetrahedra that share corners with four equivalent FeSe4 tetrahedra and corners with eight equivalent CuSe4 tetrahedra. All Sn–Se bond lengths are 2.66 Å. There are two inequivalent Se2- sites. In the first Se2- site, Se2- is bonded to two equivalent Cu+1.25+, one Cd2+, and one Sn3+ atom to form corner-sharing SeCdCu2Sn tetrahedra. In the second Se2- site, Se2- is bonded to one Fe3+, two equivalent Cu+1.25+, and one Sn3+ atom to form corner-sharing SeFeCu2Sn tetrahedra.
