Materials Data on Zn3(GaS3)2 by Materials Project
Abstract
Zn3(GaS3)2 crystallizes in the trigonal P3m1 space group. The structure is two-dimensional and consists of one Zn3(GaS3)2 sheet oriented in the (0, 0, 1) direction. there are three inequivalent Zn2+ sites. In the first Zn2+ site, Zn2+ is bonded to four S2- atoms to form ZnS4 tetrahedra that share corners with three equivalent GaS6 octahedra, corners with three equivalent GaS4 tetrahedra, and corners with six equivalent ZnS4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 58°. There are one shorter (2.26 Å) and three longer (2.36 Å) Zn–S bond lengths. In the second Zn2+ site, Zn2+ is bonded to four S2- atoms to form ZnS4 tetrahedra that share corners with three equivalent GaS6 octahedra and corners with nine ZnS4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 61°. There are three shorter (2.30 Å) and one longer (2.49 Å) Zn–S bond lengths. In the third Zn2+ site, Zn2+ is bonded to four S2- atoms to form corner-sharing ZnS4 tetrahedra. There are three shorter (2.31 Å) and one longer (2.48 Å) Zn–S bond lengths. There are two inequivalent Ga3+ sites. In the first Ga3+ site, Ga3+ is bonded to four S2- atoms to form GaS4 tetrahedra that share corners with three equivalent ZnS4more »

In the second S2- site, S2- is bonded to three equivalent Zn2+ and one Ga3+ atom to form SZn3Ga tetrahedra that share corners with six equivalent SZn3Ga tetrahedra and corners with three equivalent SZnGa3 trigonal pyramids. In the third S2- site, S2- is bonded to one Zn2+ and three equivalent Ga3+ atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner and edge-sharing SZnGa3 trigonal pyramids. In the fourth S2- site, S2- is bonded to one Zn2+ and three equivalent Ga3+ atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner and edge-sharing SZnGa3 tetrahedra. In the fifth S2- site, S2- is bonded to four Zn2+ atoms to form corner-sharing SZn4 tetrahedra.
