Materials Data on Yb(SbTe2)2 by Materials Project

YbSb2Te4 crystallizes in the tetragonal I-42d space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Yb2+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight equivalent Te2- atoms. There are four shorter (3.15 Å) and four longer (3.57 Å) Yb–Te bond lengths. Sb3+ is bonded to six equivalent Te2- atoms to form edge-sharing SbTe6 octahedra. There are a spread of Sb–Te bond distances ranging from 2.99–3.34 Å. Te2- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Yb2+ and three equivalent Sb3+ atoms.
