Materials Data on TaSe2 by Materials Project
TaSe2 is Molybdenite-like structured and crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3/mmc space group. The structure is two-dimensional and consists of two TaSe2 sheets oriented in the (0, 0, 1) direction. Ta4+ is bonded to six equivalent Se2- atoms to form distorted edge-sharing TaSe6 pentagonal pyramids. All Ta–Se bond lengths are 2.62 Å. Se2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Ta4+ atoms.
