Materials Data on W2SeS3 by Materials Project
WSe2(WS2)3 is Molybdenite-derived structured and crystallizes in the monoclinic Cm space group. The structure is two-dimensional and consists of three WS2 sheets oriented in the (0, 0, 1) direction and one WSe2 sheet oriented in the (0, 0, 1) direction. In each WS2 sheet, W4+ is bonded to six equivalent S2- atoms to form distorted edge-sharing WS6 pentagonal pyramids. All W–S bond lengths are 2.43 Å. S2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to three equivalent W4+ atoms. In the WSe2 sheet, W4+ is bonded to six equivalent Se2- atoms to form distorted edge-sharing WSe6 pentagonal pyramids. All W–Se bond lengths are 2.53 Å. Se2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to three equivalent W4+ atoms.
