Materials Data on Cs2Sb2Pd by Materials Project

Abstract

Cs2PdSb2 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Cmcm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Cs1+ sites. In the first Cs1+ site, Cs1+ is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Sb2- atoms. There are two shorter (3.86 Å) and four longer (4.28 Å) Cs–Sb bond lengths. In the second Cs1+ site, Cs1+ is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Pd2+ and six equivalent Sb2- atoms. Both Cs–Pd bond lengths are 3.56 Å. There are two shorter (3.97 Å) and four longer (4.04 Å) Cs–Sb bond lengths. Pd2+ is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Cs1+ and four equivalent Sb2- atoms. All Pd–Sb bond lengths are 2.70 Å. Sb2- is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to six Cs1+, two equivalent Pd2+, and one Sb2- atom. The Sb–Sb bond length is 2.80 Å.
