Materials Data on Cr(Mo3Se4)2 by Materials Project
Cr(Mo3Se4)2 crystallizes in the triclinic P-1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are three inequivalent Mo+2.17+ sites. In the first Mo+2.17+ site, Mo+2.17+ is bonded to five Se2- atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing MoSe5 square pyramids. There are a spread of Mo–Se bond distances ranging from 2.55–2.70 Å. In the second Mo+2.17+ site, Mo+2.17+ is bonded to five Se2- atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing MoSe5 square pyramids. There are a spread of Mo–Se bond distances ranging from 2.54–2.70 Å. In the third Mo+2.17+ site, Mo+2.17+ is bonded to five Se2- atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing MoSe5 square pyramids. There are a spread of Mo–Se bond distances ranging from 2.55–2.71 Å. Cr3+ is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight Se2- atoms. There are a spread of Cr–Se bond distances ranging from 2.51–3.16 Å. There are four inequivalent Se2- sites. In the first Se2- site, Se2- is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to four Mo+2.17+ and one Cr3+ atom. In the second Se2- site, Se2- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to three Mo+2.17+ and one Cr3+ atom. In the third Se2- site, Se2- is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to four Mo+2.17+ and one Cr3+ atom. In the fourth Se2- site, Se2- is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to four Mo+2.17+ and one Cr3+ atom.
