Materials Data on Ta2Se by Materials Project
Ta2Se crystallizes in the tetragonal P4/nmm space group. The structure is two-dimensional and consists of two Ta2Se sheets oriented in the (0, 0, 1) direction. there are two inequivalent Ta sites. In the first Ta site, Ta is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Se atoms. All Ta–Se bond lengths are 2.70 Å. In the second Ta site, Ta is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one Se atom. The Ta–Se bond length is 2.85 Å. Se is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to five Ta atoms.
