Title: Materials Data on Na2ZnSe2 by Materials Project

Abstract

Na2ZnSe2 crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/c space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Na1+ sites. In the first Na1+ site, Na1+ is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to five Se2- atoms. There are a spread of Na–Se bond distances ranging from 2.93–3.53 Å. In the second Na1+ site, Na1+ is bonded to four equivalent Se2- atoms to form distorted NaSe4 tetrahedra that share corners with four equivalent NaSe4 tetrahedra, corners with four equivalent ZnSe4 tetrahedra, and edges with four equivalent NaSe4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Na–Se bond distances ranging from 2.94–3.03 Å. Zn2+ is bonded to four Se2- atoms to form ZnSe4 tetrahedra that share corners with four equivalent NaSe4 tetrahedra, corners with four equivalent ZnSe4 tetrahedra, and an edgeedge with one ZnSe4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Zn–Se bond distances ranging from 2.43–2.56 Å. There are two inequivalent Se2- sites. In the first Se2- site, Se2- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Na1+ and three equivalent Zn2+ atoms. In the second Se2- site, Se2- is bonded to six Na1+ and one Zn2+ atom to form a mixture of distorted corner and edge-sharing SeNa6Zn pentagonal bipyramids.
