Materials Data on Ca3Sn2S7 by Materials Project
Abstract
Ca3Sn2S7 crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/c space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are three inequivalent Ca2+ sites. In the first Ca2+ site, Ca2+ is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six S2- atoms. There are a spread of Ca–S bond distances ranging from 2.77–3.41 Å. In the second Ca2+ site, Ca2+ is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to seven S2- atoms. There are a spread of Ca–S bond distances ranging from 2.78–3.37 Å. In the third Ca2+ site, Ca2+ is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six S2- atoms. There are a spread of Ca–S bond distances ranging from 2.79–3.04 Å. There are two inequivalent Sn4+ sites. In the first Sn4+ site, Sn4+ is bonded to four S2- atoms to form corner-sharing SnS4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Sn–S bond distances ranging from 2.38–2.49 Å. In the second Sn4+ site, Sn4+ is bonded to four S2- atoms to form corner-sharing SnS4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Sn–S bond distances ranging from 2.37–2.51 Å. There are seven inequivalent S2- sites. In the first S2- site, S2- is bonded to two Ca2+ and two Sn4+ atoms to form distorted corner-sharing SCa2Sn2 trigonal pyramids. In the second S2- site, S2-more »
