Materials Data on Ni3(BiS)2 by Materials Project
Ni3Bi2S2 crystallizes in the cubic I2_13 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Ni is bonded in a distorted linear geometry to four equivalent Bi and two equivalent S atoms. There are two shorter (2.74 Å) and two longer (2.90 Å) Ni–Bi bond lengths. Both Ni–S bond lengths are 2.18 Å. Bi is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Ni and one S atom. The Bi–S bond length is 3.26 Å. S is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Ni and one Bi atom.
