Title: Materials Data on Cu2S by Materials Project

Abstract

Cu2S crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3/mmc space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Cu1+ sites. In the first Cu1+ site, Cu1+ is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to three equivalent S2- atoms. All Cu–S bond lengths are 2.45 Å. In the second Cu1+ site, Cu1+ is bonded to five equivalent S2- atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner and edge-sharing CuS5 trigonal bipyramids. There are three shorter (2.45 Å) and two longer (2.68 Å) Cu–S bond lengths. S2- is bonded to eight Cu1+ atoms to form a mixture of corner and edge-sharing SCu8 hexagonal bipyramids.
