Materials Data on Te3Mo2S by Materials Project
(MoTe2)3MoS2 is Molybdenite-derived structured and crystallizes in the trigonal P3m1 space group. The structure is two-dimensional and consists of one MoS2 sheet oriented in the (0, 0, 1) direction and three MoTe2 sheets oriented in the (0, 0, 1) direction. In the MoS2 sheet, Mo4+ is bonded to six equivalent S2- atoms to form distorted edge-sharing MoS6 pentagonal pyramids. All Mo–S bond lengths are 2.49 Å. S2- is bonded in a distorted T-shaped geometry to three equivalent Mo4+ atoms. In each MoTe2 sheet, Mo4+ is bonded to six equivalent Te2- atoms to form distorted edge-sharing MoTe6 pentagonal pyramids. All Mo–Te bond lengths are 2.72 Å. Te2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Mo4+ atoms.
