Materials Data on Fe6Ni3S8 by Materials Project
Abstract
Fe6Ni3S8 crystallizes in the trigonal R3m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are four inequivalent Fe2+ sites. In the first Fe2+ site, Fe2+ is bonded to four S2- atoms to form FeS4 tetrahedra that share corners with three equivalent FeS6 octahedra, corners with six equivalent NiS4 tetrahedra, and edges with three equivalent FeS4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 50°. There are one shorter (2.09 Å) and three longer (2.18 Å) Fe–S bond lengths. In the second Fe2+ site, Fe2+ is bonded to four S2- atoms to form FeS4 tetrahedra that share corners with three equivalent FeS6 octahedra, corners with six FeS4 tetrahedra, an edgeedge with one FeS4 tetrahedra, and edges with two equivalent NiS4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 52°. There are a spread of Fe–S bond distances ranging from 2.14–2.23 Å. In the third Fe2+ site, Fe2+ is bonded to four S2- atoms to form FeS4 tetrahedra that share corners with three equivalent FeS6 octahedra, corners with six equivalent FeS4 tetrahedra, and edges with three equivalent NiS4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 51°. There are one shorter (2.12 Å) and three longer (2.23 Å) Fe–S bond lengths. In the fourth Fe2+ site,more »
