Materials Data on RbHfCu3Se4 by Materials Project
RbHfCu3Se4 crystallizes in the cubic P-43m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Rb1+ is bonded to four equivalent Se2- atoms to form RbSe4 tetrahedra that share corners with four equivalent HfSe4 tetrahedra and corners with twelve equivalent CuSe4 tetrahedra. All Rb–Se bond lengths are 3.00 Å. Hf4+ is bonded to four equivalent Se2- atoms to form HfSe4 tetrahedra that share corners with four equivalent RbSe4 tetrahedra and edges with six equivalent CuSe4 tetrahedra. All Hf–Se bond lengths are 2.47 Å. Cu1+ is bonded to four equivalent Se2- atoms to form CuSe4 tetrahedra that share corners with four equivalent RbSe4 tetrahedra, corners with eight equivalent CuSe4 tetrahedra, and edges with two equivalent HfSe4 tetrahedra. All Cu–Se bond lengths are 2.66 Å. Se2- is bonded to one Rb1+, one Hf4+, and three equivalent Cu1+ atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing SeRbHfCu3 trigonal bipyramids.
