Materials Data on In5AgTe8 by Materials Project
AgIn5Te8 crystallizes in the tetragonal P-42m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Ag1+ is bonded to four equivalent Te2- atoms to form AgTe4 tetrahedra that share corners with eight equivalent InTe4 tetrahedra. All Ag–Te bond lengths are 2.83 Å. There are two inequivalent In3+ sites. In the first In3+ site, In3+ is bonded to four Te2- atoms to form InTe4 tetrahedra that share corners with two equivalent AgTe4 tetrahedra and corners with six InTe4 tetrahedra. There are two shorter (2.81 Å) and two longer (2.91 Å) In–Te bond lengths. In the second In3+ site, In3+ is bonded to four equivalent Te2- atoms to form corner-sharing InTe4 tetrahedra. All In–Te bond lengths are 2.87 Å. There are two inequivalent Te2- sites. In the first Te2- site, Te2- is bonded in a trigonal non-coplanar geometry to one Ag1+ and two equivalent In3+ atoms. In the second Te2- site, Te2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal non-coplanar geometry to three In3+ atoms.
