Title: Materials Data on Ca(FeS2)4 by Materials Project

Abstract

Ca(FeS2)4 crystallizes in the trigonal R-3m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Ca2+ is bonded to six equivalent S+1.50- atoms to form CaS6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent FeS6 octahedra and edges with six equivalent FeS6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 9°. All Ca–S bond lengths are 2.63 Å. There are two inequivalent Fe+2.50+ sites. In the first Fe+2.50+ site, Fe+2.50+ is bonded to six equivalent S+1.50- atoms to form FeS6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent CaS6 octahedra and edges with six equivalent FeS6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 9°. All Fe–S bond lengths are 2.22 Å. In the second Fe+2.50+ site, Fe+2.50+ is bonded to six S+1.50- atoms to form FeS6 octahedra that share edges with two equivalent CaS6 octahedra and edges with six FeS6 octahedra. There are two shorter (2.28 Å) and four longer (2.30 Å) Fe–S bond lengths. There are two inequivalent S+1.50- sites. In the first S+1.50- site, S+1.50- is bonded in a rectangular see-saw-like geometry to one Ca2+ and three Fe+2.50+ atoms. In the second S+1.50- site, S+1.50- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Fe+2.50+ atoms.
