Materials Data on Zn3Cd3(TeO6)2 by Materials Project

Cd3Te2Zn3O12 crystallizes in the cubic Ia-3d space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Cd2+ is bonded in a distorted body-centered cubic geometry to eight equivalent O2- atoms. There are four shorter (2.42 Å) and four longer (2.59 Å) Cd–O bond lengths. Zn2+ is bonded to four equivalent O2- atoms to form ZnO4 tetrahedra that share corners with four equivalent TeO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 49°. All Zn–O bond lengths are 1.95 Å. Te6+ is bonded to six equivalent O2- atoms to form TeO6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent ZnO4 tetrahedra. All Te–O bond lengths are 1.97 Å. O2- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Cd2+, one Zn2+, and one Te6+ atom.
