Materials Data on ZnSnSb2 by Materials Project

Abstract

Sb2SnZn is SC16 CuCl, stable at 5GPa-derived structured and crystallizes in the monoclinic Cm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are six inequivalent Zn2+ sites.

There are a spread of Zn–Sb bond distances ranging from 2.63–2.79 Å. In the second Zn2+ site, Zn2+ is bonded to four Sb3- atoms to form corner-sharing ZnSb4 trigonal pyramids. There are a spread of Zn–Sb bond distances ranging from 2.65–2.77 Å. In the third Zn2+ site, Zn2+ is bonded to four Sb3- atoms to form distorted corner-sharing ZnSb4 trigonal pyramids. There are a spread of Zn–Sb bond distances ranging from 2.62–2.77 Å. In the fourth Zn2+ site, Zn2+ is bonded to four Sb3- atoms to form distorted corner-sharing ZnSb4 trigonal pyramids. There are a spread of Zn–Sb bond distances ranging from 2.62–2.86 Å. In the fifth Zn2+ site, Zn2+ is bonded to four Sb3- atoms to form distorted corner-sharing ZnSb4 trigonal pyramids. There are a spread of Zn–Sb bond distances ranging from 2.62–2.88 Å. In the sixth Zn2+ site, Zn2+ is bonded to four Sb3- atoms to form distorted ZnSb4 trigonal pyramids that share corners with three equivalent SnSb4 tetrahedra and corners with nine ZnSb4 trigonal pyramids. There are a spread of Zn–Sb bond distances ranging from 2.63–2.97 Å. There are six inequivalent Sn4+ sites. In the first Sn4+ site, Sn4+ is bonded to four Sb3- atoms to form SnSb4 tetrahedra that share corners with six equivalent SnSb4 tetrahedra, corners with three equivalent ZnSb4 trigonal pyramids, and corners with three equivalent SnSb4 trigonal pyramids.
