Materials Data on In2NiS4 by Materials Project
Abstract
NiIn2S4 is Spinel-like structured and crystallizes in the orthorhombic Imma space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Ni2+ is bonded to six S2- atoms to form NiS6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent InS4 tetrahedra, edges with two equivalent NiS6 octahedra, and edges with four equivalent InS6 octahedra. There are two shorter (2.37 Å) and four longer (2.42 Å) Ni–S bond lengths. There are two inequivalent In3+ sites. In the first In3+ site, In3+ is bonded to four S2- atoms to form InS4 tetrahedra that share corners with six equivalent NiS6 octahedra and corners with six equivalent InS6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 50–69°. There are two shorter (2.54 Å) and two longer (2.55 Å) In–S bond lengths. In the second In3+ site, In3+ is bonded to six S2- atoms to form InS6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent InS4 tetrahedra, edges with two equivalent InS6 octahedra, and edges with four equivalent NiS6 octahedra. There are four shorter (2.62 Å) and two longer (2.63 Å) In–S bond lengths. There are two inequivalent S2- sites. In the first S2- site, S2- is bonded to two equivalent Ni2+ and two In3+ atoms to form a mixture of distortedmore »
