Materials Data on Zr5Te4 by Materials Project
Zr5Te4 is Titanium telluride structured and crystallizes in the tetragonal I4/m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Zr sites. In the first Zr site, Zr is bonded in a distorted square co-planar geometry to four equivalent Te atoms. All Zr–Te bond lengths are 3.11 Å. In the second Zr site, Zr is bonded to five equivalent Te atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing ZrTe5 trigonal bipyramids. There are two shorter (2.94 Å) and three longer (2.95 Å) Zr–Te bond lengths. Te is bonded in a distorted hexagonal planar geometry to six Zr atoms.
