Materials Data on Zr3Te2 by Materials Project
Zr3Te2 crystallizes in the trigonal R32 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Zr is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Te atoms. There are two shorter (2.90 Å) and two longer (2.91 Å) Zr–Te bond lengths. Te is bonded to six equivalent Zr atoms to form a mixture of distorted face, edge, and corner-sharing TeZr6 pentagonal pyramids.
