Materials Data on In(TeMo)3 by Materials Project

Abstract

(MoTe)3In crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/m space group. The structure is one-dimensional and consists of two indium molecules and one MoTe ribbon oriented in the (0, 1, 0) direction. In the MoTe ribbon, there are two inequivalent Mo sites. In the first Mo site, Mo is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to six Mo and four Te atoms. There are a spread of Mo–Mo bond distances ranging from 2.66–2.78 Å. There are a spread of Mo–Te bond distances ranging from 2.84–2.90 Å. In the second Mo site, Mo is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Mo and four Te atoms. There are a spread of Mo–Te bond distances ranging from 2.84–2.90 Å. There are two inequivalent Te sites. In the first Te site, Te is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four Mo atoms. In the second Te site, Te is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four Mo atoms.
