Single Crystal Growth of Synthetic Sulfide- and Phosphide-Based Minerals for Physical Measurements

In this work, we review recent advances in the use of high-temperature solution growth that allow for the growth of single crystalline samples of synthetic minerals. We outline how low-melting binary or ternary solutions are attractive solvents for solution growth and provide examples of the growth of bismuthinite (Bi 2 S 3 ), galena (PbS) and parkerite (Ni 3 Bi 2 S 2 ). We then focus on the Rh-S, Pd-S and Ni-P phase spaces to discuss how the low-melting regions near transition metal-main group eutectic compositions make excellent solvents for crystal growth of several binary and ternary minerals containing both high melting and volatile elements as well as for the discovery of new materials. We end by discussing the growth of synthetic canfieldite (Ag 8 SnS 6 ) and argyrodite (Ag 8 GeS 6 ) from Ag 2 S–Sn-S-based solutions.

Materials Data on Rh2S3 by Materials Project

Rh2S3 is Corundum-like structured and crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pbcn space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Rh3+ is bonded to six S2- atoms to form a mixture of face, edge, and corner-sharing RhS6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 49–70°. There are a spread of Rh–S bond distances ranging from 2.33–2.43 Å. There are two inequivalent S2- sites. In the first S2- site, S2- is bonded to four equivalent Rh3+ atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing SRh4 trigonal pyramids. In the second S2- site, S2- is bonded to four equivalent Rh3+ atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing SRh4 tetrahedra.

In the first Rh site, Rh is bonded to six S atoms to form RhS6 octahedra that share corners with four equivalent RhS5 square pyramids, corners with two equivalent SRh3S tetrahedra, and edges with three RhS6 octahedra. There are a spread of Rh–S bond distances ranging from 2.34–2.39 Å. In the second Rh site, Rh is bonded to six S atoms to form RhS6 octahedra that share corners with two equivalent RhS5 square pyramids and edges with four equivalent RhS6 octahedra. There are two shorter (2.38 Å) and four longer (2.41 Å) Rh–S bond lengths. In the third Rh site, Rh is bonded to five S atoms to form RhS5 square pyramids that share corners with five RhS6 octahedra, corners with two equivalent SRh3S tetrahedra, and an edgeedge with one RhS5 square pyramid.
