Title: Materials Data on La2MgS4 by Materials Project

Abstract

MgLa2S4 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Mg2+ is bonded in a trigonal pyramidal geometry to four S2- atoms. There are a spread of Mg–S bond distances ranging from 2.33–2.42 Å. There are two inequivalent La3+ sites. In the first La3+ site, La3+ is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to seven S2- atoms. There are a spread of La–S bond distances ranging from 2.87–3.27 Å. In the second La3+ site, La3+ is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six S2- atoms. There are a spread of La–S bond distances ranging from 2.73–3.06 Å. There are three inequivalent S2- sites. In the first S2- site, S2- is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to one Mg2+ and four La3+ atoms. In the second S2- site, S2- is bonded in a T-shaped geometry to one Mg2+ and two La3+ atoms. In the third S2- site, S2- is bonded in a distorted rectangular see-saw-like geometry to one Mg2+ and three La3+ atoms.
