Title: Materials Data on ZnBr2 by Materials Project

Abstract

ZnBr2 crystallizes in the tetragonal I4_1/acd space group. The structure is three-dimensional and consists of two ZnBr2 frameworks. Zn2+ is bonded to four Br1- atoms to form corner-sharing ZnBr4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Zn–Br bond distances ranging from 2.44–2.46 Å. There are three inequivalent Br1- sites. In the first Br1- site, Br1- is bonded in a water-like geometry to two equivalent Zn2+ atoms. In the second Br1- site, Br1- is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to two equivalent Zn2+ atoms. In the third Br1- site, Br1- is bonded in a water-like geometry to two equivalent Zn2+ atoms.
