Title: Materials Data on SmMgS3 by Materials Project

Abstract

MgSmS3 is Ilmenite structured and crystallizes in the trigonal R-3 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Mg2+ is bonded to six equivalent S+1.67- atoms to form MgS6 octahedra that share corners with nine equivalent SmS6 octahedra, edges with three equivalent MgS6 octahedra, and a faceface with one SmS6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 42–61°. There are three shorter (2.57 Å) and three longer (2.68 Å) Mg–S bond lengths. Sm3+ is bonded to six equivalent S+1.67- atoms to form SmS6 octahedra that share corners with nine equivalent MgS6 octahedra, edges with three equivalent SmS6 octahedra, and a faceface with one MgS6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 42–61°. There are three shorter (2.77 Å) and three longer (2.82 Å) Sm–S bond lengths. S+1.67- is bonded in a distorted see-saw-like geometry to two equivalent Mg2+ and two equivalent Sm3+ atoms.
