Abstract
In2Te3 crystallizes in the cubic F-43m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent In3+ sites. In the first In3+ site, In3+ is bonded to four Te2- atoms to form InTe4 tetrahedra that share corners with seven InTe4 tetrahedra and an edgeedge with one TeTe12 cuboctahedra. There are a spread of In–Te bond distances ranging from 2.78–2.89 Å. In the second In3+ site, In3+ is bonded to four Te2- atoms to form InTe4 tetrahedra that share corners with two equivalent TeTe12 cuboctahedra and corners with eight InTe4 tetrahedra. There are two shorter (2.88 Å) and two longer (2.89 Å) In–Te bond lengths. There are five inequivalent Te2- sites. In the first Te2- site, Te2- is bonded in a water-like geometry to two equivalent In3+ atoms. In the second Te2- site, Te2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal non-coplanar geometry to three In3+ and one Te2- atom. The Te–Te bond length is 4.17 Å. In the third Te2- site, Te2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal non-coplanar geometry to three equivalent In3+ atoms. In the fourth Te2- site, Te2- is bonded in a trigonal non-coplanar geometry to three equivalent In3+ atoms. In the fifth Te2- site, Te2- is bondedmore »
