Materials Data on La4Bi2S9 by Materials Project
Abstract
La4Bi2S9 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are four inequivalent La3+ sites. In the first La3+ site, La3+ is bonded to seven S2- atoms to form distorted LaS7 pentagonal bipyramids that share corners with two equivalent BiS6 octahedra and faces with two equivalent LaS7 pentagonal bipyramids. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 74°. There are a spread of La–S bond distances ranging from 2.80–3.16 Å. In the second La3+ site, La3+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight S2- atoms. There are a spread of La–S bond distances ranging from 2.87–3.24 Å. In the third La3+ site, La3+ is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to eight S2- atoms. There are a spread of La–S bond distances ranging from 2.96–3.50 Å. In the fourth La3+ site, La3+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight S2- atoms. There are a spread of La–S bond distances ranging from 2.93–3.11 Å. There are two inequivalent Bi3+ sites. In the first Bi3+ site, Bi3+ is bonded to seven S2- atoms to form distorted BiS7 pentagonal bipyramids that share corners with two equivalent BiS6 octahedra and edges with four equivalent BiS7 pentagonal bipyramids.
