Materials Data on In3BiTe4 by Materials Project
In3BiTe4 crystallizes in the tetragonal I422 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent In+1.67+ sites. In the first In+1.67+ site, In+1.67+ is bonded to four equivalent Te2- atoms to form edge-sharing InTe4 tetrahedra. All In–Te bond lengths are 2.90 Å. In the second In+1.67+ site, In+1.67+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight equivalent Te2- atoms. All In–Te bond lengths are 3.56 Å. Bi3+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight equivalent Te2- atoms. All Bi–Te bond lengths are 3.56 Å. Te2- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to four In+1.67+ and two equivalent Bi3+ atoms.
