Materials Data on NdAsS by Materials Project
NdAsS crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/c space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Nd3+ is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to four equivalent As1- and five equivalent S2- atoms. There are a spread of Nd–As bond distances ranging from 3.19–3.28 Å. There are a spread of Nd–S bond distances ranging from 2.88–2.96 Å. As1- is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Nd3+ and four equivalent As1- atoms. There are a spread of As–As bond distances ranging from 2.56–3.05 Å. S2- is bonded to five equivalent Nd3+ atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing SNd5 trigonal bipyramids.
