Materials Data on Cu4Bi4S9 by Materials Project
Abstract
Cu4Bi4S9 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are four inequivalent Cu+1.50+ sites. In the first Cu+1.50+ site, Cu+1.50+ is bonded to four S2- atoms to form CuS4 tetrahedra that share corners with two equivalent BiS5 square pyramids and corners with two equivalent CuS4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Cu–S bond distances ranging from 2.29–2.33 Å. In the second Cu+1.50+ site, Cu+1.50+ is bonded to four S2- atoms to form distorted CuS4 tetrahedra that share corners with four equivalent BiS6 octahedra, corners with two equivalent BiS5 square pyramids, corners with two equivalent CuS4 tetrahedra, an edgeedge with one BiS6 octahedra, and edges with two equivalent CuS4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 38–41°. There are a spread of Cu–S bond distances ranging from 2.30–2.91 Å. In the third Cu+1.50+ site, Cu+1.50+ is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four S2- atoms. There are a spread of Cu–S bond distances ranging from 2.24–2.73 Å. In the fourth Cu+1.50+ site, Cu+1.50+ is bonded to four S2- atoms to form distorted CuS4 tetrahedra that share corners with two equivalent BiS6 octahedra, corners with two equivalent BiS5 square pyramids, and corners with two equivalent CuS4 tetrahedra.more »
