Materials Data on Ta2NiS5 by Materials Project

Ta2NiS5 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Cmcm space group. The structure is two-dimensional and consists of two Ta2NiS5 sheets oriented in the (0, 1, 0) direction. Ta4+ is bonded to six S2- atoms to form TaS6 octahedra that share a cornercorner with one TaS6 octahedra, edges with four equivalent TaS6 octahedra, and edges with two equivalent NiS4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 58°. There are a spread of Ta–S bond distances ranging from 2.44–2.57 Å. Ni2+ is bonded to four S2- atoms to form NiS4 tetrahedra that share corners with two equivalent NiS4 tetrahedra and edges with four equivalent TaS6 octahedra. There are two shorter (2.23 Å) and two longer (2.26 Å) Ni–S bond lengths. There are three inequivalent S2- sites. In the first S2- site, S2- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Ta4+ and two equivalent Ni2+ atoms. In the second S2- site, S2- is bonded in a distorted T-shaped geometry to three equivalent Ta4+ atoms. In the third S2- site, S2- is bonded in a distorted T-shaped geometry to two equivalent Ta4+ and one Ni2+ atom.

Materials Data on Ta9(NiS3)2 by Materials Project

Ta9(NiS3)2 crystallizes in the hexagonal P-62m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Ta sites. In the first Ta site, Ta is bonded to two equivalent Ni and three S atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing TaNi2S3 trigonal bipyramids. Both Ta–Ni bond lengths are 2.51 Å. There are one shorter (2.40 Å) and two longer (2.53 Å) Ta–S bond lengths. In the second Ta site, Ta is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Ni and three S atoms. Both Ta–Ni bond lengths are 2.98 Å. There are two shorter (2.52 Å) and one longer (2.55 Å) Ta–S bond lengths. Ni is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to nine Ta atoms. There are two inequivalent S sites. In the first S site, S is bonded in a distorted pentagonal planar geometry to five Ta atoms. In the second S site, S is bonded in a distorted rectangular see-saw-like geometry to four Ta atoms.
