Materials Data on Ge5(Te4As)2 by Materials Project
Abstract
Ge5(AsTe4)2 crystallizes in the monoclinic C2/m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are three inequivalent Ge4+ sites. In the first Ge4+ site, Ge4+ is bonded to six Te2- atoms to form GeTe6 octahedra that share corners with four GeTe6 octahedra, edges with two equivalent AsTe6 octahedra, and edges with ten GeTe6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 0°. There are a spread of Ge–Te bond distances ranging from 2.94–2.97 Å. In the second Ge4+ site, Ge4+ is bonded to six Te2- atoms to form GeTe6 octahedra that share corners with three equivalent GeTe6 octahedra, corners with three equivalent AsTe6 octahedra, edges with two equivalent AsTe6 octahedra, and edges with nine GeTe6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 0–1°. There are two shorter (2.95 Å) and four longer (2.97 Å) Ge–Te bond lengths. In the third Ge4+ site, Ge4+ is bonded to six Te2- atoms to form GeTe6 octahedra that share corners with five GeTe6 octahedra, edges with four equivalent AsTe6 octahedra, and edges with six GeTe6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 0–1°. There are a spread of Ge–Te bond distances ranging from 2.90–2.99 Å. As2- is bonded to six Te2- atoms to formmore »
