Materials Data on TlCdSb by Materials Project
CdTlSb crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Cd2+ is bonded to four equivalent Sb3- atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing CdSb4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Cd–Sb bond distances ranging from 2.95–3.06 Å. Tl1+ is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one Sb3- atom. The Tl–Sb bond length is 3.42 Å. Sb3- is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Cd2+ and one Tl1+ atom.
