Materials Data on Ba4SnGe2(S4Br)2 by Materials Project
Abstract
Ba4Ge2SnS8Br2 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pmn2_1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Ba2+ sites. In the first Ba2+ site, Ba2+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to six S2- and two equivalent Br1- atoms. There are a spread of Ba–S bond distances ranging from 3.24–3.53 Å. There are one shorter (3.33 Å) and one longer (3.50 Å) Ba–Br bond lengths. In the second Ba2+ site, Ba2+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to six S2- and two equivalent Br1- atoms. There are a spread of Ba–S bond distances ranging from 3.29–3.55 Å. There are one shorter (3.35 Å) and one longer (3.45 Å) Ba–Br bond lengths. Sn2+ is bonded to five S2- and one Br1- atom to form distorted SnS5Br octahedra that share corners with three equivalent GeS4 tetrahedra and an edgeedge with one GeS4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Sn–S bond distances ranging from 2.67–3.16 Å. The Sn–Br bond length is 3.12 Å. There are two inequivalent Ge4+ sites. In the first Ge4+ site, Ge4+ is bonded to four S2- atoms to form GeS4 tetrahedra that share an edgeedge with one SnS5Br octahedra. There are a spread of Ge–S bond distances ranging from 2.21–2.24more »
