A new ternary antimonide SrLiSb has been synthesized and characterized using single-crystal X-ray studies. It is found to crystallize in the anti-PbCl2 structure type with orthorhombic cell (centrosymmetric S.G., Pnma; , , ) and is isostructural to its calcium analogue (CaLiSb). However, BaLiSb has been reported to crystallize in the hexagonal space group P63/mmc. As in the Ca and Ba analogues, antimony is present as isolated Sb3− ions making SrLiSb electron precise and hence is expected to behave as a classical Zintl compound. The magnetic susceptibility measurements show the diamagnetic nature and the conductivity is temperature independent, both verifying the classical Zintl nature of SrLiSb. 相似文献

The new title compound has been synthesized and characterized by physical property measurements and electronic structure calculations. The results ratify the highly uncommon deficiency of one electron that has been long speculated for its Ca3Ga5-type structure on the basis of the simple Zintl electron counting formalism. In the Sr3In5 structure (Cmcm), 4- and 2-bonded indium atoms in a 4:1 ratio form a three-dimensional classical network that encapsulates strontium atoms in its narrow channels. The electrical conductivity of the compound shows typical metallic behavior. The detailed electronic structure analysis suggests that the electron hole is mainly localized on a nonbonding p-orbital on the 2-bonded indium atoms, and that these orbitals, stacked in a sigma-type way along avector (4.97 A), interact only weakly with each other to form highly one-dimensional bands. 相似文献

The Sr3Tl5 phase was prepared by high temperature synthesis techniques through reaction of the high purity elements in the welded Nb tubes.The structure established through X-ray structural analysis shows the compound is a good hypoelectronic trielide example of the Pu3Pd5 structural type in which skeletal electron count is lower than in a traditional Zintl phase(Cmcm,Z = 4;a = 10.604(2) ,b = 8.675(2) ,and c = 10.985(2) ;V = 1010.5(3) 3).The strontium size and the compound’s polarity appear responsible for this thallium phase crystallization in the Pu3Pd5 family type rather than the isoelectronic Sr3In5 version.A first-principle electronic structure calculation(LMTO) demonstrates that the strontium atoms participate substantially in Sr-Tl bonding in the structure. 相似文献

Theoretical reasons for metallic behavior among diverse Zintl phases have generally not been pursued at an advanced level. Here, the electronic structure of Ca5Ge3 (Cr5B3 type), which can be formulated (Ca+2)5(Ge2-6)Ge-4 in oxidation states, has been explored comparatively by means of semiempirical and first-principles density functional methods. The FP-APW calculations show that alkaline-earth-metal and germanium orbitals, particularly the d orbitals on the cations and the p-pi orbitals of the halogen-like dimeric Ge2-6, mix considerably to form a conduction band. This covalency perfectly explains the unusual metallic properties of the nominally electron-precise Zintl phase Ca5Ge3 and its numerous relatives. Similar calculational results are obtained for Sr5Ge3, Ba5Ge3, and Ca5Sn3. Cation d orbitals appear to be a common theme among Zintl phases that are also metallic. 相似文献

The novel Zintl phase dibarium zinc diphosphide (Ba2ZnP2) was synthesized for the first time. This was accomplished using the Pb flux technique, which allowed for the growth of crystals of adequate size for structural determination via single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction methods. The Ba2ZnP2 compound was determined to crystallize in a body‐centered orthorhombic space group, Ibam (No. 72). Formally, this crystallographic arrangement belongs to the K2SiP2 structure type. Therefore, the structure can be best described as infinite [ZnP2]4? polyanionic chains with divalent Ba2+ cations located between the chains. All valence electrons are partitioned, which conforms to the Zintl–Klemm concept and suggests that Ba2ZnP2 is a valence‐precise composition. The electronic band structure of this new compound, computed with the aid of the TB–LMTO–ASA code, shows that Ba2ZnP2 is an intrinsic semiconductor with a band gap of ca 0.6 eV. 相似文献

This phase was discovered following direct fusion of the elements in welded Nb tubes at 550 degrees C and equilibration at 300 degrees C for 1 week. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis reveals that KNa(3)In(9) crystallizes in an orthorhombic system (Cmca, Z = 8, a = 9.960(1) A, b =16.564(2) A, c = 17.530(2) A, 23 degrees C). The structure contains a three-dimensional indium network built of layers of empty In(12) icosahedra that are each 12-bonded and interconnected by 4-bonded indium atoms that also form zigzag chains. All cations bridge between cluster faces or edges, and their mixed sizes appear critical to the stability of this particular structure, which does not occur in either binary system. Both empirical electron counting and EHTB band structure calculations on the macroanion indicate that the bonding in this structure is closed-shell, whereas resistivity and magnetic susceptibility measures show that the compound is a moderately poor metal. 相似文献

Two new binary Zintl phases, Sr3Sn5 and Ba3Sn5 were synthesized and structurally characterized. The revised structure of Ba3Pb5 is also reported. All three compounds are isotypic and crystallize with a modified Pu3Pd5 structure type. The anionic substructure is composed of X56– square pyramidal clusters (X = Sn, Pb), which are described as arachno clusters according to the Wade‐Mingos electron counting rules. The electronic structure of the pyramidal Zintl anions and the influence of the number of skeletal electrons of these clusters are investigated using the electron localization function (ELF). The structural relationship between Ba3Sn5 and the Zintl phases Ba3Si4 and Ba3Ge4 are analyzed. Additionally, two new Zintl phases Ba3Ge2.82Sn2.18 and Ba3Ge3.94Sn0.06, have been synthezised and their structures are reported, which directly show that the exchange of tin against germanium leads to a change from the M3X5 to the M3X4 structure type. This effect is traced back to the maximal charge acquisition property of the Zintl anions of heavier and lighter tetralides. 相似文献

High resolution single crystal synchrotron X-ray diffraction data measured at 15(2) K were used to solve the structure of the complex intermetallic Zintl phase, Yb(11)AlSb(9) (space group Iba2), made up of Yb cations and polyanions along with isolated Sb anions. The 15(2) K cell parameters are a = 11.7383(4) ?, b = 12.3600(4) ?, c = 16.6796(6) ?. The temperature dependence of the structure was investigated through high resolution synchrotron powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) data measured from 90 K to 1000 K. Rietveld refinements of the crystal structure revealed near linear thermal expansion of Yb(11)AlSb(9) with expansion coefficients of 1.49(2) × 10(-5) K(-1), 1.71(3) × 10(-5) K(-1), 1.13(1) × 10(-5) K(-1) for a, b and c, respectively. The chemical bonding in Yb(11)AlSb(9) was analyzed using atomic Hirshfeld surfaces, and the analysis supports the presence of the structural elements of Yb cations, [AlSb(4)](9-) tetrahedra, [Sb(2)](4-) dimers and isolated Sb(3-) anions. However, indications of interatomic interactions between the Zintl anions and the Yb cations were also observed. 相似文献

A new Zintl phase Ba3Ga4Sb5 was obtained from the reaction of Ba and Sb in excess Ga flux at 1000°C, and its structure was determined with single-crystal X-ray diffraction methods. It crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group Pnma (No. 62) with a=13.248(3) Å, b=4.5085(9) Å, c=24.374(5) Å and Z=4. Ba3Ga4Sb5 has a three-dimensional [Ga4Sb5]6− framework featuring large tunnels running along the b-axis and accommodating the Ba ions. The structure also has small tube-like tunnels of pentagonal and rhombic cross-sections. The structure contains ethane-like dimeric Sb3Ga-GaSb3 units and GaSb4 tetrahedra that are connected to form 12- and 14-membered tunnels. Band structure calculations confirm that the material is a semiconductor and indicate that the structure is stabilized by strong Ga-Ga covalent bonding interactions. 相似文献

A new polar intermetallic compound, Eu3Sn5, has been synthesized by solid-state reaction of the corresponding pure elements in a stoichiometric ratio in a welded tantalum tube at high temperature. Its crystal structure was established by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Eu3Sn5 crystallizes in orthorhombic, space group Cmcm with a = 10.466(11), b = 8.445(8), c = 10.662(12) , V = 942.4(17) 3, Z = 4, Mr = 1049.33, Dc = 7.396 g/cm3, μ = 32.578 mm-1, F(000) = 1756, the final R = 0.0236 and wR = 0.0472 for 535 observed reflections with I > 2σ(I). Its structure belongs to the modified Pu3Pd5 type. It is isostructural with Sr3Sn5 and Ba3Sn5, featuring [Sn5] square pyramidal clusters described as "arachno" according to the Wade-Mingos electron counting rules. The europium cations are located at the voids between the square pyramidal clusters. Results of the extended Hückel band structure calculations indicate that Eu3Sn5 is metallic. 相似文献

A new rare-earth rich Zintl phase Yb11GaSb9 was synthesized by direct fusion of the corresponding elements, and large single crystals of the compound were obtained from high temperature flux synthesis. Its crystal structure was determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction to be orthorhombic in the non-centrosymmetric space group Iba2 (No. 45), Z=4 (R1=3.24%, wR2=6.40%) with , , measured at 90(3) K. The structure belongs to the Ca11InSb9-type and can be viewed as built of isolated Sb4-tetrahedra centered by Ga, Sb-dimers and isolated Sb anions, which are separated by Yb2+ cations. Electron count according to the Zintl formalism suggests that the phase is electron-precise and charge-balanced, which is supported by the virtually temperature-independent magnetization for Yb11GaSb9. Electrical resistivity data from 2 to 400 K confirm that Yb11GaSb9 is a small band-gap semiconductor with room temperature resistivity , and low-temperature resistivity at 2 K . As such, Yb11GaSb9 and related compounds might be promising materials for thermoelectric applications, and currently, efforts to synthesize new members of this family and test their thermoelectric performance are under way. 相似文献

The crystal structure of silver azide (AgN3) in its high-temperature (HT) modification was determined from X-ray powder diffraction data, recorded at T = 170 degrees C and was further refined by the Rietveld method. The structure is monoclinic (P21/c (No. 14), a = 6.0756(2) A, b = 6.1663(2) A, c = 6.5729(2) A, beta = 114.19(0) degrees, V = 224.62(14) A3, Z = 4) and consists of two-dimensional Ag and N containing layers in which the silver atoms are coordinated by four nitrogen atoms exhibiting a distorted square coordination environment. These sheets are linked together by weaker perpendicular Ag-N contacts, thus forming a 4 + 2 coordination geometry around the silver atoms. The phase transition has been characterized by DTA, DSC, and measurement of the density, as well as of the ionic conductivity. Both, the room-temperature and the HT phase are electrically insulating. This fact is getting support by DFT band structure calculations within the generalized gradient approximation, using the PBE functional. On the basis of the DFT band structure, the bonding characteristics of both phases are essentially the same. Finally, the implication of the existence of a low-symmetry HT-phase in a crystalline explosive concerning decomposition mechanisms is discussed. 相似文献

The compound [PPh(4)](2)[NEt(4)][CuTe(7)] has been synthesized from the reaction of CuCl with a polytelluride solution in dimethylformamide at room temperature. The compound crystallizes with two formula units in the triclinic space group P(-)1 in a cell with dimensions a = 8.9507(18) A, b = 14.714(3) A, and c = 23.277(5) A and alpha= 86.32(3) degrees, beta= 80.17(3) degrees, and gamma= 75.63(3) degrees (T = -120 degrees C). Ab initio calculations indicate that the nonclassical [CuTe(7)](3)(-) anion is the result of joining Te(3)(2-) and [CuTe(4)](1-) fragments through donor-acceptor interactions. 相似文献

Reported are two new series of Zintl phases, ACd(4)Pn(3) and AZn(4)Pn(3) (A = Na, K, Rb, Cs; Pn = As, P), whose structures feature complex atomic arrangements based on four- and eight-coordinated arsenic and phosphorus. A total of 12 compounds have been synthesized from the corresponding elements via high temperature reactions, and their structures have been established by X-ray diffraction. RbCd(4)As(3), KCd(4)As(3), NaCd(4)As(3), NaZn(4)As(3), KCd(4)P(3), and KZn(4)P(3) crystallize with a new rhombohedral structure (space group R3m, Z = 3, Pearson symbol hR24), while the isoelectronic RbZn(4)As(3), CsCd(4)As(3), CsZn(4)As(3), KZn(4)As(3), CsZn(4)P(3), and RbZn(4)P(3) adopt the tetragonal KCu(4)S(3)-type structure (space group P4/mmm, Z = 1, Pearson symbol tP8). Both structures are very closely related to the ubiquitous CaAl(2)Si(2) and ThCr(2)Si(2) structure types, and the corresponding relationships are discussed. The experimental results have been complemented by linear muffin-tin orbital (LMTO) tight-binding band structure calculations. Preliminary transport properties measurements on polycrystalline samples suggest that the compounds of these families could be promising thermoelectric materials. 相似文献

Stable (N-aryl)- and (N-alkyl)dialkylsilaketenimines R2SiCNR' [R = 1,1,4,4-tetrakis(trimethylsilyl)butane-1,4-diyl, R' = 2,6-diisopropylphenyl (2a) and 1-adamantyl (2b)] were synthesized as blue and red crystals by the reactions of isolable dialkylsilylene 3 with 2,6-diisopropylphenyl isocyanide and 1-adamantyl isocyanide. X-ray single-crystal analysis disclosed that molecular structures of 2a and 2b were close to each other and were characterized to be allenic rather than zwitterionic or a silylene-isocyanide complex. The bonding characteristics of silaketenimines are found to be affected strongly by the substituents on silicon and nitrogen atoms. Remarkable red-shift of the pi(Si=C) --> pi*(C=N) band of 2a [lambdamax/nm (epsilon) 647(156)] compared with that of 2b [465 nm (109)] is ascribed to lowering of the pi*(C=N) orbital level due to significant interaction between pi*(C=N) and pi*(N-aryl) orbitals. 相似文献

Large, high quality single crystals of a new Zintl phase, EuIn(2)As(2), have been synthesized from a reactive indium flux. EuIn(2)As(2) is isostructural to the recently reported phase EuIn(2)P(2), and it is only the second reported member of the group of compounds with formula AM(2)X(2) (A = alkali, alkaline earth, or rare earth cation; M = transition or post-transition metal; and X = Group 14 or 15 element) that crystallizes in the hexagonal space group P6(3)/mmc (a = 4.2067(3) A, c = 17.889(2) A and Z = 2). The structure type contains layers of A(2+) cations separated by [M(2)X(2)](2-) layers along the crystallographic c-axis. Crystals of the title compound were mounted for magnetic measurements, with the crystallographic c-axis oriented either parallel or perpendicular to the direction of the applied field. The collective magnetization versus temperature and field data indicate two magnetic exchange interactions near 16 K, one involving Eu(2+)...Eu(2+) intralayer coupling and the other involving Eu(2+)...Eu(2+) coupling between layers. EuIn(2)As(2) is metallic and magnetoresistive, as is the isostructural phosphide, and both compounds have coincident resistivity and magnetic ordering transitions, consistent with the observation of colossal magnetoresistance. Negative colossal magnetoresistance (MR = {[rho(H) - rho(0)]/rho(H)} x 100%) of up to -143% (at T = 17.5 K, H = 5 T) is observed for EuIn(2)As(2), approximately half of that observed for the more resistive phosphide, which has a higher magnetic ordering temperature and local moment coupling strength. 相似文献

The Zintl phase, Yb8Ge3Sb5 exhibits a complex lattice response and an abrupt negative thermal expansion below 15 K - subtle structural changes before and after the transition are consistent with temperature-induced electron transfer from (to) Yb 4f bands to (from) Sb 5p and Ge 4p bands. 相似文献
