Materials Data on Nb5(SeS)2 by Materials Project
Nb5(SeS)2 is Titanium telluride-derived structured and crystallizes in the monoclinic C2/m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are three inequivalent Nb sites. In the first Nb site, Nb is bonded in a distorted square co-planar geometry to two equivalent Se and two equivalent S atoms. Both Nb–Se bond lengths are 2.88 Å. Both Nb–S bond lengths are 2.73 Å. In the second Nb site, Nb is bonded to two equivalent Se and three equivalent S atoms to form distorted NbSe2S3 square pyramids that share corners with eight equivalent NbSe3S2 square pyramids and edges with six NbSe2S3 square pyramids. Both Nb–Se bond lengths are 2.66 Å. There are one shorter (2.50 Å) and two longer (2.59 Å) Nb–S bond lengths. In the third Nb site, Nb is bonded to three equivalent Se and two equivalent S atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing NbSe3S2 square pyramids. There are one shorter (2.63 Å) and two longer (2.72 Å) Nb–Se bond lengths. Both Nb–S bond lengths are 2.54 Å. Se is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six Nb atoms. S is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six Nb atoms.
