Materials Data on Eu(LuS2)2 by Materials Project
Eu(LuS2)2 crystallizes in the tetragonal I-42d space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Lu3+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight equivalent S2- atoms. There are a spread of Lu–S bond distances ranging from 2.68–3.10 Å. Eu2+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight equivalent S2- atoms. There are four shorter (2.84 Å) and four longer (3.06 Å) Eu–S bond lengths. S2- is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Lu3+ and two equivalent Eu2+ atoms.
