Materials Data on Eu(Ni3S4)2 by Materials Project
Eu(Ni3S4)2 crystallizes in the triclinic P1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Eu3+ is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight S2- atoms. There are a spread of Eu–S bond distances ranging from 2.77–3.06 Å. There are six inequivalent Ni+2.17+ sites. In the first Ni+2.17+ site, Ni+2.17+ is bonded to five S2- atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing NiS5 trigonal bipyramids. There are a spread of Ni–S bond distances ranging from 2.21–2.32 Å. In the second Ni+2.17+ site, Ni+2.17+ is bonded to five S2- atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing NiS5 trigonal bipyramids. There are a spread of Ni–S bond distances ranging from 2.21–2.32 Å. In the third Ni+2.17+ site, Ni+2.17+ is bonded to five S2- atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing NiS5 trigonal bipyramids. There are a spread of Ni–S bond distances ranging from 2.21–2.32 Å. In the fourth Ni+2.17+ site, Ni+2.17+ is bonded to five S2- atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing NiS5 trigonal bipyramids. There are a spread of Ni–S bond distances ranging from 2.21–2.32 Å. In the fifth Ni+2.17+ site, Ni+2.17+ is bonded to five S2- atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing NiS5 trigonal bipyramids.
