Title: Materials Data on Nb3SnS6 by Materials Project

Abstract

Nb3SnS6 is Ilmenite-like structured and crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_322 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Nb+3.33+ sites. In the first Nb+3.33+ site, Nb+3.33+ is bonded to six equivalent S2- atoms to form distorted edge-sharing NbS6 pentagonal pyramids. There are three shorter (2.49 Å) and three longer (2.51 Å) Nb–S bond lengths. In the second Nb+3.33+ site, Nb+3.33+ is bonded to six equivalent S2- atoms to form distorted edge-sharing NbS6 pentagonal pyramids. All Nb–S bond lengths are 2.49 Å. Sn2+ is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six equivalent S2- atoms. All Sn–S bond lengths are 2.86 Å. S2- is bonded in a distorted rectangular see-saw-like geometry to three Nb+3.33+ and one Sn2+ atom.
