Materials Data on Cd2InAgTe4 by Materials Project

Abstract

AgCd2InTe4 is Stannite structured and crystallizes in the tetragonal I-42m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Ag1+ is bonded to four equivalent Te2- atoms to form AgTe4 tetrahedra that share corners with four equivalent InTe4 tetrahedra and corners with eight equivalent CdTe4 tetrahedra. All Ag–Te bond lengths are 2.83 Å. Cd2+ is bonded to four equivalent Te2- atoms to form CdTe4 tetrahedra that share corners with four equivalent AgTe4 tetrahedra, corners with four equivalent CdTe4 tetrahedra, and corners with four equivalent InTe4 tetrahedra. All Cd–Te bond lengths are 2.87 Å. In3+ is bonded to four equivalent Te2- atoms to form InTe4 tetrahedra that share corners with four equivalent AgTe4 tetrahedra and corners with eight equivalent CdTe4 tetrahedra. All In–Te bond lengths are 2.85 Å. Te2- is bonded to one Ag1+, two equivalent Cd2+, and one In3+ atom to form corner-sharing TeCd2InAg tetrahedra.
