The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 59–64°. There are a spread of Tm–S bond distances ranging from 2.53–2.57 Å. In the fourth Tm3+ site, Tm3+ is bonded to four S2- atoms to form TmS4 tetrahedra that share a cornercorner with one MgS6 octahedra, corners with two equivalent TmS6 octahedra, corners with two equivalent MgS4 tetrahedra, and corners with four TmS4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 59–62°. There are a spread of Tm–S bond distances ranging from 2.54–2.57 Å. There are eight inequivalent S2- sites. In the first S2- site, S2- is bonded to two equivalent Mg2+ and two Tm3+ atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner and edge-sharing STm2Mg2 tetrahedra. In the second S2- site, S2- is bonded to two Mg2+ and two equivalent Tm3+ atoms to form distorted STm2Mg2 tetrahedra that share corners with nine STm2Mg2 tetrahedra and edges with three STm3Mg tetrahedra. In the third S2- site, S2- is bonded in a trigonal non-coplanar geometry to one Mg2+ and two Tm3+ atoms. In the fourth S2- site, S2- is bonded in a trigonal non-coplanar geometry to three Tm3+ atoms. In the fifth S2- site, S2- is bonded in a trigonal non-coplanar geometry to one Mg2+ and two Tm3+ atoms. In the sixth S2- site, S2- is bonded in a trigonal non-coplanar geometry to one Mg2+ and two Tm3+ atoms. In the seventh S2- site, S2- is bonded to one Mg2+ and three Tm3+ atoms to form distorted STm3Mg tetrahedra that share corners with nine STm2Mg2 tetrahedra and edges with three STm3Mg tetrahedra. In the eighth S2- site, S2- is bonded to two equivalent Mg2+ and two Tm3+ atoms to form distorted STm2Mg2 tetrahedra that share corners with nine STm2Mg2 tetrahedra and edges with three STm3Mg tetrahedra.

Materials Data on YTmTe2 by Materials Project

TmYTe2 is Caswellsilverite-like structured and crystallizes in the tetragonal P4/mmm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Tm is bonded to six Te atoms to form TmTe6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent TmTe6 octahedra, edges with four equivalent TmTe6 octahedra, and edges with eight equivalent YTe6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 0°. There are four shorter (3.06 Å) and two longer (3.07 Å) Tm–Te bond lengths. Y is bonded to six Te atoms to form YTe6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent YTe6 octahedra, edges with four equivalent YTe6 octahedra, and edges with eight equivalent TmTe6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 0°. There are four shorter (3.06 Å) and two longer (3.07 Å) Y–Te bond lengths. There are two inequivalent Te sites. In the first Te site, Te is bonded to two equivalent Tm and four equivalent Y atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing TeY4Tm2 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 0°. In the second Te site, Te is bonded to four equivalent Tm and two equivalent Y atoms to form TeY2Tm4 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent TeY2Tm4 octahedra and edges with twelve TeY4Tm2 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 0°.
