Title: Materials Data on Te2W by Materials Project

Abstract

WTe2 is Molybdenite-like structured and crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pmn2_1 space group. The structure is two-dimensional and consists of two WTe2 sheets oriented in the (0, 0, 1) direction. W4+ is bonded to six Te2- atoms to form distorted edge-sharing WTe6 pentagonal pyramids. There are a spread of W–Te bond distances ranging from 2.73–2.84 Å. There are two inequivalent Te2- sites. In the first Te2- site, Te2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to three equivalent W4+ atoms. In the second Te2- site, Te2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to three equivalent W4+ atoms.
