Materials Data on CdPbS2 by Materials Project
CdPbS2 is Caswellsilverite structured and crystallizes in the trigonal R-3m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Cd2+ is bonded to six equivalent S2- atoms to form CdS6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent PbS6 octahedra, edges with six equivalent CdS6 octahedra, and edges with six equivalent PbS6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 6°. All Cd–S bond lengths are 2.78 Å. Pb2+ is bonded to six equivalent S2- atoms to form PbS6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent CdS6 octahedra, edges with six equivalent CdS6 octahedra, and edges with six equivalent PbS6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 6°. All Pb–S bond lengths are 2.98 Å. S2- is bonded to three equivalent Cd2+ and three equivalent Pb2+ atoms to form a mixture of corner and edge-sharing SCd3Pb3 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 0°.
