Materials Data on CsPS3 by Materials Project
SPSSCs crystallizes in the orthorhombic Immm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Cs1+ is bonded in a distorted q6 geometry to ten S2- atoms. There are a spread of Cs–S bond distances ranging from 3.74–3.90 Å. P5+ is bonded to four S2- atoms to form edge-sharing PS4 tetrahedra. There are two shorter (1.98 Å) and two longer (2.17 Å) P–S bond lengths. There are two inequivalent S2- sites. In the first S2- site, S2- is bonded in a distorted L-shaped geometry to two equivalent Cs1+ and two equivalent P5+ atoms. In the second S2- site, S2- is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to four equivalent Cs1+ and one P5+ atom.
