Title: Materials Data on Cu8GeSe6 by Materials Project

Abstract

Cu8GeSe6 crystallizes in the monoclinic Cc space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are eight inequivalent Cu1+ sites. In the first Cu1+ site, Cu1+ is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to three Se2- atoms. There are two shorter (2.44 Å) and one longer (2.46 Å) Cu–Se bond lengths. In the second Cu1+ site, Cu1+ is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to three Se2- atoms. There are a spread of Cu–Se bond distances ranging from 2.44–2.55 Å. In the third Cu1+ site, Cu1+ is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to three Se2- atoms. There are a spread of Cu–Se bond distances ranging from 2.44–2.46 Å. In the fourth Cu1+ site, Cu1+ is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four Se2- atoms. There are a spread of Cu–Se bond distances ranging from 2.43–2.77 Å. In the fifth Cu1+ site, Cu1+ is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four Se2- atoms. There are a spread of Cu–Se bond distances ranging from 2.43–2.78 Å. In the sixth Cu1+ site, Cu1+ is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four Se2- atoms. There are a spread of Cu–Se bond distances ranging from 2.38–3.30 Å. In the seventh Cu1+ site, Cu1+ is bondedmore » in a 4-coordinate geometry to four Se2- atoms. There are a spread of Cu–Se bond distances ranging from 2.34–3.25 Å. In the eighth Cu1+ site, Cu1+ is bonded in a distorted rectangular see-saw-like geometry to four Se2- atoms. There are a spread of Cu–Se bond distances ranging from 2.37–3.23 Å. Ge4+ is bonded in a tetrahedral geometry to four Se2- atoms. There are a spread of Ge–Se bond distances ranging from 2.37–2.40 Å. There are six inequivalent Se2- sites. In the first Se2- site, Se2- is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to five Cu1+ atoms. In the second Se2- site, Se2- is bonded in a tetrahedral geometry to three Cu1+ and one Ge4+ atom. In the third Se2- site, Se2- is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight Cu1+ atoms. In the fourth Se2- site, Se2- is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to four Cu1+ and one Ge4+ atom. In the fifth Se2- site, Se2- is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to four Cu1+ and one Ge4+ atom. In the sixth Se2- site, Se2- is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to five Cu1+ and one Ge4+ atom.« less
