Abstract
Ir2Ge3Te3 is Skutterudite-derived structured and crystallizes in the monoclinic C2/m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Ir sites. In the first Ir site, Ir is bonded to four Ge and two equivalent Te atoms to form IrGe4Te2 octahedra that share corners with six IrGe4Te2 octahedra, corners with four equivalent GeGe2Ir2 tetrahedra, and corners with four equivalent TeGe2Ir2 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 50–61°. There are two shorter (2.50 Å) and two longer (2.64 Å) Ir–Ge bond lengths. Both Ir–Te bond lengths are 2.54 Å. In the second Ir site, Ir is bonded to two equivalent Ge and four Te atoms to form IrGe2Te4 octahedra that share corners with six IrGe4Te2 octahedra and corners with eight GeGe2Ir2 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 50–63°. Both Ir–Ge bond lengths are 2.65 Å. There are two shorter (2.55 Å) and two longer (2.65 Å) Ir–Te bond lengths. There are two inequivalent Ge sites. In the first Ge site, Ge is bonded to two Ir and two equivalent Ge atoms to form distorted GeGe2Ir2 tetrahedra that share corners with four IrGe4Te2 octahedra, corners with two equivalent TeGe2Ir2 tetrahedra, corners with four GeGe2Ir2 tetrahedra, and anmore »
