Abstract
Er2CdS4 is Spinel-like structured and crystallizes in the trigonal R3m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are ten inequivalent Er3+ sites. In the first Er3+ site, Er3+ is bonded to four S2- atoms to form ErS4 tetrahedra that share corners with three equivalent CdS6 octahedra and corners with nine ErS6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 57–59°. There are three shorter (2.58 Å) and one longer (2.60 Å) Er–S bond lengths. In the second Er3+ site, Er3+ is bonded to four S2- atoms to form ErS4 tetrahedra that share corners with three equivalent CdS6 octahedra and corners with nine ErS6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 58°. There are three shorter (2.58 Å) and one longer (2.61 Å) Er–S bond lengths. In the third Er3+ site, Er3+ is bonded to six S2- atoms to form ErS6 octahedra that share corners with three ErS4 tetrahedra, corners with three CdS4 tetrahedra, edges with two CdS6 octahedra, and edges with four equivalent ErS6 octahedra. There are a spread of Er–S bond distances ranging from 2.70–2.75 Å. In the fourth Er3+ site, Er3+ is bonded to six S2- atoms to form ErS6 octahedra that share a cornercorner with one ErS4more »
