Abstract
Cu4Bi7S12 crystallizes in the monoclinic C2/m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Cu1+ sites. In the first Cu1+ site, Cu1+ is bonded to four S2- atoms to form CuS4 tetrahedra that share corners with eight BiS5 square pyramids, corners with two equivalent CuS4 tetrahedra, an edgeedge with one BiS5 square pyramid, and an edgeedge with one CuS4 tetrahedra. There are three shorter (2.34 Å) and one longer (2.38 Å) Cu–S bond lengths. In the second Cu1+ site, Cu1+ is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to four S2- atoms. There are a spread of Cu–S bond distances ranging from 2.24–3.11 Å. There are four inequivalent Bi+2.86+ sites. In the first Bi+2.86+ site, Bi+2.86+ is bonded to six S2- atoms to form BiS6 octahedra that share corners with two equivalent BiS6 octahedra, corners with four equivalent BiS5 square pyramids, edges with six BiS6 octahedra, and edges with two equivalent BiS5 square pyramids. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 10°. There are four shorter (2.80 Å) and two longer (2.91 Å) Bi–S bond lengths. In the second Bi+2.86+ site, Bi+2.86+ is bonded to five S2- atoms to form BiS5 square pyramids that share corners with four equivalentmore »
