Materials Data on Cu2GeS3 by Materials Project

Cu2GeS3 is Enargite-like structured and crystallizes in the monoclinic Cc space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Cu1+ sites. In the first Cu1+ site, Cu1+ is bonded to four S2- atoms to form CuS4 tetrahedra that share corners with five equivalent GeS4 tetrahedra and corners with seven CuS4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Cu–S bond distances ranging from 2.29–2.33 Å. In the second Cu1+ site, Cu1+ is bonded to four S2- atoms to form CuS4 tetrahedra that share corners with five equivalent GeS4 tetrahedra and corners with seven CuS4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Cu–S bond distances ranging from 2.29–2.31 Å. Ge4+ is bonded to four S2- atoms to form GeS4 tetrahedra that share corners with two equivalent GeS4 tetrahedra and corners with ten CuS4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Ge–S bond distances ranging from 2.24–2.38 Å. There are three inequivalent S2- sites. In the first S2- site, S2- is bonded to three Cu1+ and one Ge4+ atom to form corner-sharing SCu3Ge tetrahedra. In the second S2- site, S2- is bonded to three Cu1+ and one Ge4+ atom to form corner-sharing SCu3Ge tetrahedra. In the third S2- site, S2- is bonded to two Cu1+ and two equivalent Ge4+ atoms to form corner-sharing SCu2Ge2 tetrahedra.
