Materials Data on TlFeBr3 by Materials Project
FeTlBr3 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Fe2+ is bonded to six Br1- atoms to form edge-sharing FeBr6 octahedra. There are a spread of Fe–Br bond distances ranging from 2.54–2.70 Å. Tl1+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight Br1- atoms. There are a spread of Tl–Br bond distances ranging from 3.38–3.61 Å. There are three inequivalent Br1- sites. In the first Br1- site, Br1- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Fe2+ and three equivalent Tl1+ atoms. In the second Br1- site, Br1- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to one Fe2+ and four equivalent Tl1+ atoms. In the third Br1- site, Br1- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Fe2+ and one Tl1+ atom.
