Materials Data on Y2MgS4 by Materials Project
Abstract
MgY2S4 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Cmc2_1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Mg2+ is bonded to six S2- atoms to form MgS6 octahedra that share corners with three equivalent YS6 octahedra, corners with four equivalent YS7 pentagonal bipyramids, edges with two equivalent MgS6 octahedra, edges with three equivalent YS6 octahedra, and edges with three equivalent YS7 pentagonal bipyramids. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 10–54°. There are a spread of Mg–S bond distances ranging from 2.55–2.65 Å. There are two inequivalent Y3+ sites. In the first Y3+ site, Y3+ is bonded to seven S2- atoms to form distorted YS7 pentagonal bipyramids that share corners with four equivalent MgS6 octahedra, corners with four equivalent YS6 octahedra, edges with three equivalent MgS6 octahedra, edges with three equivalent YS6 octahedra, and faces with two equivalent YS7 pentagonal bipyramids. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 17–67°. There are a spread of Y–S bond distances ranging from 2.72–3.05 Å. In the second Y3+ site, Y3+ is bonded to six S2- atoms to form YS6 octahedra that share corners with three equivalent MgS6 octahedra, corners with four equivalent YS7 pentagonal bipyramids, edges with two equivalent YS6 octahedra, edges with three equivalent MgS6 octahedra, andmore »
