Title: Materials Data on CdCu2GeTe4 by Materials Project

Abstract

Cu2CdGeTe4 is Stannite structured and crystallizes in the tetragonal I-42m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Cu1+ is bonded to four equivalent Te2- atoms to form CuTe4 tetrahedra that share corners with four equivalent CuTe4 tetrahedra, corners with four equivalent CdTe4 tetrahedra, and corners with four equivalent GeTe4 tetrahedra. All Cu–Te bond lengths are 2.59 Å. Cd2+ is bonded to four equivalent Te2- atoms to form CdTe4 tetrahedra that share corners with four equivalent GeTe4 tetrahedra and corners with eight equivalent CuTe4 tetrahedra. All Cd–Te bond lengths are 2.86 Å. Ge4+ is bonded to four equivalent Te2- atoms to form GeTe4 tetrahedra that share corners with four equivalent CdTe4 tetrahedra and corners with eight equivalent CuTe4 tetrahedra. All Ge–Te bond lengths are 2.68 Å. Te2- is bonded to two equivalent Cu1+, one Cd2+, and one Ge4+ atom to form corner-sharing TeCdCu2Ge tetrahedra.
