Title: Materials Data on Te4MoW3S4 by Materials Project

Abstract

WTe2MoTe2(WS2)2 is Molybdenite-derived structured and crystallizes in the trigonal P3m1 space group. The structure is two-dimensional and consists of one MoTe2 sheet oriented in the (0, 0, 1) direction; two WS2 sheets oriented in the (0, 0, 1) direction; and one WTe2 sheet oriented in the (0, 0, 1) direction. In the MoTe2 sheet, Mo6+ is bonded to six equivalent Te2- atoms to form distorted edge-sharing MoTe6 pentagonal pyramids. All Mo–Te bond lengths are 2.71 Å. Te2- is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Mo6+ atoms. In each WS2 sheet, W+3.33+ is bonded to six S2- atoms to form distorted edge-sharing WS6 pentagonal pyramids. All W–S bond lengths are 2.46 Å. There are two inequivalent S2- sites. In the first S2- site, S2- is bonded in a distorted T-shaped geometry to three equivalent W+3.33+ atoms. In the second S2- site, S2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to three equivalent W+3.33+ atoms. In the WTe2 sheet, W+3.33+ is bonded to six equivalent Te2- atoms to form distorted edge-sharing WTe6 pentagonal pyramids. There are three shorter (2.71 Å) and three longer (2.72 Å) W–Te bond lengths. Te2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to three equivalent W+3.33+ atoms.
