Title: Materials Data on Ag(Te5Au2)2 by Materials Project

Abstract

(AuTe2)4AgTe2 is Calaverite-derived structured and crystallizes in the monoclinic C2/m space group. The structure is two-dimensional and consists of one AgTe2 sheet oriented in the (0, 0, 1) direction and four AuTe2 sheets oriented in the (0, 0, 1) direction. In the AgTe2 sheet, Ag1+ is bonded to six equivalent Te+1.40- atoms to form edge-sharing AgTe6 octahedra. There are two shorter (2.80 Å) and four longer (2.95 Å) Ag–Te bond lengths. Te+1.40- is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Ag1+ atoms. In each AuTe2 sheet, Au+3.25+ is bonded to six Te+1.40- atoms to form edge-sharing AuTe6 octahedra. There are a spread of Au–Te bond distances ranging from 2.77–2.95 Å. There are two inequivalent Te+1.40- sites. In the first Te+1.40- site, Te+1.40- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Au+3.25+ atoms. In the second Te+1.40- site, Te+1.40- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Au+3.25+ atoms.
