Materials Data on TlSn by Materials Project

TlSn is Tetraauricupride structured and crystallizes in the tetragonal P4/mmm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Tl is bonded to four equivalent Tl and eight equivalent Sn atoms to form TlTl4Sn8 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent TlTl4Sn8 cuboctahedra, edges with eight equivalent TlTl4Sn8 cuboctahedra, edges with sixteen equivalent SnTl8Sn4 cuboctahedra, faces with eight equivalent SnTl8Sn4 cuboctahedra, and faces with ten equivalent TlTl4Sn8 cuboctahedra. All Tl–Tl bond lengths are 3.35 Å. All Tl–Sn bond lengths are 3.55 Å. Sn is bonded to eight equivalent Tl and four equivalent Sn atoms to form SnTl8Sn4 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent SnTl8Sn4 cuboctahedra, edges with eight equivalent SnTl8Sn4 cuboctahedra, edges with sixteen equivalent TlTl4Sn8 cuboctahedra, faces with eight equivalent TlTl4Sn8 cuboctahedra, and faces with ten equivalent SnTl8Sn4 cuboctahedra. All Sn–Sn bond lengths are 3.35 Å.

Materials Data on TlSn3 by Materials Project

TlSn3 crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3/mmc space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Tl is bonded to twelve Sn atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner and face-sharing TlSn12 cuboctahedra. There are six shorter (3.36 Å) and six longer (3.57 Å) Tl–Sn bond lengths. There are three inequivalent Sn sites. In the first Sn site, Sn is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Tl and eight Sn atoms. There are two shorter (3.24 Å) and six longer (3.49 Å) Sn–Sn bond lengths. In the second Sn site, Sn is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Tl and eight Sn atoms. All Sn–Sn bond lengths are 3.49 Å. In the third Sn site, Sn is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Tl and eight Sn atoms. Both Sn–Sn bond lengths are 3.49 Å.
