Materials Data on Nd3InS6 by Materials Project
Abstract
Nd3InS6 crystallizes in the orthorhombic P2_12_12 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are three inequivalent Nd3+ sites. In the first Nd3+ site, Nd3+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight S2- atoms. There are a spread of Nd–S bond distances ranging from 2.90–2.98 Å. In the second Nd3+ site, Nd3+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight S2- atoms. There are a spread of Nd–S bond distances ranging from 2.87–3.13 Å. In the third Nd3+ site, Nd3+ is bonded to seven S2- atoms to form distorted NdS7 pentagonal bipyramids that share edges with two equivalent InS6 octahedra and edges with two equivalent NdS7 pentagonal bipyramids. There are a spread of Nd–S bond distances ranging from 2.83–2.99 Å. There are two inequivalent In3+ sites. In the first In3+ site, In3+ is bonded to six S2- atoms to form InS6 octahedra that share edges with two equivalent InS6 octahedra and edges with four equivalent NdS7 pentagonal bipyramids. There are a spread of In–S bond distances ranging from 2.62–2.68 Å. In the second In3+ site, In3+ is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four S2- atoms. There are two shorter (2.47 Å) and two longer (2.53 Å) In–S bond lengths.more »
