Crystalline structure of Cu4SSe

详细

Ternary compound Cu₄SSe has been first synthesized by alloying the Cu, S, and Se elements taken in stoichiometric ratios. An X-ray diffraction study of polycrystalline samples has revealed the synthesized material to be crystallized into the trigonal system with unit-cell parameters а = 4.021(1) Å, с = 6.838(1) Å, and V = 95.75(4) ų; sp. gr. P\(\bar 3\)m1; Z = 1; D_x = 6.333(3) g/cm³. The crystal structure has been solved and refined to the reliability factor R_Bragg = 0.40%.
