Materials Data on Cr(FeSe2)2 by Materials Project
Cr(FeSe2)2 crystallizes in the triclinic P1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Cr3+ is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four Se2- atoms. There are a spread of Cr–Se bond distances ranging from 2.45–2.51 Å. There are two inequivalent Fe+2.50+ sites. In the first Fe+2.50+ site, Fe+2.50+ is bonded in a distorted pentagonal planar geometry to five Se2- atoms. There are a spread of Fe–Se bond distances ranging from 2.36–2.50 Å. In the second Fe+2.50+ site, Fe+2.50+ is bonded in a distorted pentagonal planar geometry to five Se2- atoms. There are a spread of Fe–Se bond distances ranging from 2.35–2.57 Å. There are four inequivalent Se2- sites. In the first Se2- site, Se2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Cr3+ and two Fe+2.50+ atoms. In the second Se2- site, Se2- is bonded to one Cr3+ and three Fe+2.50+ atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing SeCrFe3 tetrahedra. In the third Se2- site, Se2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Cr3+ and two Fe+2.50+ atoms. In the fourth Se2- site, Se2- is bonded to one Cr3+ and three Fe+2.50+ atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing SeCrFe3 tetrahedra.
