Materials Data on RbAg3Te2 by Materials Project
RbAg3Te2 crystallizes in the monoclinic C2/m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Rb1+ is bonded to seven Te2- atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge and face-sharing RbTe7 pentagonal bipyramids. There are a spread of Rb–Te bond distances ranging from 3.76–3.90 Å. There are three inequivalent Ag1+ sites. In the first Ag1+ site, Ag1+ is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Ag1+ and three Te2- atoms. Both Ag–Ag bond lengths are 3.18 Å. There are two shorter (2.82 Å) and one longer (2.86 Å) Ag–Te bond lengths. In the second Ag1+ site, Ag1+ is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Ag1+ and three Te2- atoms. The Ag–Ag bond length is 2.88 Å. There are one shorter (2.78 Å) and two longer (2.98 Å) Ag–Te bond lengths. In the third Ag1+ site, Ag1+ is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to five Ag1+ and four Te2- atoms. Both Ag–Ag bond lengths are 3.03 Å. There are a spread of Ag–Te bond distances ranging from 2.81–3.22 Å. There are two inequivalent Te2- sites. In the first Te2- site, Te2- is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Rb1+ and six Ag1+ atoms. In the second Te2- site, Te2- is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Rb1+ and four Ag1+ atoms.
