Materials Data on InCuTe2 by Materials Project
CuInTe2 is Chalcopyrite structured and crystallizes in the tetragonal I-42d space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Cu1+ is bonded to four equivalent Te2- atoms to form CuTe4 tetrahedra that share corners with four equivalent CuTe4 tetrahedra and corners with eight equivalent InTe4 tetrahedra. All Cu–Te bond lengths are 2.60 Å. In3+ is bonded to four equivalent Te2- atoms to form InTe4 tetrahedra that share corners with four equivalent InTe4 tetrahedra and corners with eight equivalent CuTe4 tetrahedra. All In–Te bond lengths are 2.86 Å. Te2- is bonded to two equivalent Cu1+ and two equivalent In3+ atoms to form corner-sharing TeIn2Cu2 tetrahedra.
