Abstract: | Single crystals of MnGa2Te4 were grown from the melt using the directional freezing technique. They crystallize in the monoclinic system, a=11.999(3), b=11.999(3), c=24.922(6) Å, β=104.01(2)°, Z=16 MnGa2Te4 units, space group C2/c. The structure was solved by direct methods and refined to Rw=0.035 for 791 observed reflections and to Rw=0.062 for 3067 independently measured reflections. Te atoms form an arrangement which is a superlattice of anion lattice of β-Cu2HgI4. On the contrary, the same model does not conform cation lattice, because 1/3 of metal atoms occupy positions displaced from tetrahedral sites. |
