Materials Data on Ta8NiSe8 by Materials Project
Abstract
NiTa8Se8 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are eight inequivalent Ta sites. In the first Ta site, Ta is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to one Ni and four Se atoms. The Ta–Ni bond length is 2.86 Å. There are a spread of Ta–Se bond distances ranging from 2.64–2.73 Å. In the second Ta site, Ta is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to one Ni and four Se atoms. The Ta–Ni bond length is 2.91 Å. There are a spread of Ta–Se bond distances ranging from 2.64–2.83 Å. In the third Ta site, Ta is bonded to six Se atoms to form distorted TaSe6 octahedra that share corners with two equivalent TaNi2Se3 trigonal bipyramids, edges with two equivalent TaSe6 octahedra, edges with two equivalent TaSe5 trigonal bipyramids, and a faceface with one TaNi2Se3 trigonal bipyramid. There are a spread of Ta–Se bond distances ranging from 2.61–2.79 Å. In the fourth Ta site, Ta is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to one Ni and five Se atoms. The Ta–Ni bond length is 2.92 Å. There are a spread of Ta–Se bond distances ranging from 2.60–3.14 Å. In the fifth Ta site, Ta is bonded tomore »

In the eighth Ta site, Ta is bonded to two equivalent Ni and three Se atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner and edge-sharing TaNi2Se3 trigonal bipyramids. Both Ta–Ni bond lengths are 2.51 Å. There are one shorter (2.61 Å) and two longer (2.70 Å) Ta–Se bond lengths. Ni is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to nine Ta atoms. There are eight inequivalent Se sites.
