Materials Data on K7TaAs4 by Materials Project
Abstract
K7TaAs4 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pmn2_1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are five inequivalent K1+ sites. In the first K1+ site, K1+ is bonded to four As3- atoms to form distorted KAs4 tetrahedra that share corners with two equivalent TaAs4 tetrahedra, corners with four equivalent KAs4 tetrahedra, and an edgeedge with one TaAs4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of K–As bond distances ranging from 3.25–3.47 Å. In the second K1+ site, K1+ is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to five As3- atoms. There are a spread of K–As bond distances ranging from 3.44–3.79 Å. In the third K1+ site, K1+ is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to one K1+ and four As3- atoms. The K–K bond length is 3.35 Å. There are a spread of K–As bond distances ranging from 3.19–3.56 Å. In the fourth K1+ site, K1+ is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to one K1+ and four As3- atoms. There are a spread of K–As bond distances ranging from 3.48–3.86 Å. In the fifth K1+ site, K1+ is bonded in a distorted trigonal non-coplanar geometry to three As3- atoms. There are one shorter (3.25 Å) and two longer (3.35 Å) K–As bond lengths. Ta5+ is bondedmore »

In the first As3- site, As3- is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to seven K1+ and one Ta5+ atom. In the second As3- site, As3- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to seven K1+ and one Ta5+ atom. In the third As3- site, As3- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to eight K1+ and one Ta5+ atom.},
