Materials Data on Zn(GaTe2)2 by Materials Project
ZnGa2Te4 crystallizes in the tetragonal I-4 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Zn2+ is bonded to four equivalent Te2- atoms to form ZnTe4 tetrahedra that share corners with eight GaTe4 tetrahedra. All Zn–Te bond lengths are 2.69 Å. There are two inequivalent Ga3+ sites. In the first Ga3+ site, Ga3+ is bonded to four equivalent Te2- atoms to form GaTe4 tetrahedra that share corners with four equivalent ZnTe4 tetrahedra and corners with four equivalent GaTe4 tetrahedra. All Ga–Te bond lengths are 2.67 Å. In the second Ga3+ site, Ga3+ is bonded to four equivalent Te2- atoms to form GaTe4 tetrahedra that share corners with four equivalent ZnTe4 tetrahedra and corners with four equivalent GaTe4 tetrahedra. All Ga–Te bond lengths are 2.68 Å. Te2- is bonded in a trigonal non-coplanar geometry to one Zn2+ and two Ga3+ atoms.
