Materials Data on Eu2MgS4 by Materials Project
Abstract
MgEu2S4 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pca2_1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Mg2+ sites. In the first Mg2+ site, Mg2+ is bonded to six S2- atoms to form MgS6 octahedra that share a cornercorner with one EuS6 octahedra, corners with two equivalent MgS6 octahedra, corners with four EuS7 pentagonal bipyramids, an edgeedge with one MgS6 octahedra, edges with four EuS6 octahedra, and edges with three EuS7 pentagonal bipyramids. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 10–54°. There are a spread of Mg–S bond distances ranging from 2.51–2.92 Å. In the second Mg2+ site, Mg2+ is bonded to six S2- atoms to form MgS6 octahedra that share a cornercorner with one EuS6 octahedra, corners with two equivalent MgS6 octahedra, corners with four EuS7 pentagonal bipyramids, an edgeedge with one MgS6 octahedra, edges with four EuS6 octahedra, and edges with three EuS7 pentagonal bipyramids. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 10–54°. There are a spread of Mg–S bond distances ranging from 2.50–2.82 Å. There are four inequivalent Eu3+ sites. In the first Eu3+ site, Eu3+ is bonded to six S2- atoms to form EuS6 octahedra that share a cornercorner with one MgS6 octahedra, corners with two equivalentmore »
