Title: Materials Data on Nb12I21Br by Materials Project

Abstract

Nb12I21Br crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pcc2 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are six inequivalent Nb sites. In the first Nb site, Nb is bonded to five I atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing NbI5 square pyramids. There are a spread of Nb–I bond distances ranging from 2.88–3.01 Å. In the second Nb site, Nb is bonded to four I and one Br atom to form distorted NbI4Br square pyramids that share a cornercorner with one NbI4Br square pyramid and edges with four NbI5 square pyramids. There are two shorter (2.88 Å) and two longer (2.90 Å) Nb–I bond lengths. The Nb–Br bond length is 2.86 Å. In the third Nb site, Nb is bonded to five I atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing NbI5 square pyramids. There are a spread of Nb–I bond distances ranging from 2.87–3.02 Å. In the fourth Nb site, Nb is bonded to five I atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing NbI5 square pyramids. There are a spread of Nb–I bond distances ranging from 2.88–3.01 Å. In the fifth Nb site, Nb is bonded to five I atoms to form a mixturemore » of distorted edge and corner-sharing NbI5 square pyramids. There are a spread of Nb–I bond distances ranging from 2.88–2.99 Å. In the sixth Nb site, Nb is bonded to five I atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing NbI5 square pyramids. There are a spread of Nb–I bond distances ranging from 2.87–3.02 Å. There are eleven inequivalent I sites. In the first I site, I is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to three Nb atoms. In the second I site, I is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to three Nb atoms. In the third I site, I is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to three Nb atoms. In the fourth I site, I is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to three Nb atoms. In the fifth I site, I is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to two Nb atoms. In the sixth I site, I is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to three Nb atoms. In the seventh I site, I is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to two equivalent Nb atoms. In the eighth I site, I is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to three Nb atoms. In the ninth I site, I is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to three Nb atoms. In the tenth I site, I is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to three Nb atoms. In the eleventh I site, I is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to two Nb atoms. Br is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to two equivalent Nb atoms.« less
