چکیده

The crystal structures of yellow Cu3PS4 and of black Cu3SbS4 were refined from single crystal X-ray diffraction data. Cu3PS4 crystallizes orthorhombic in an ordered wurtzite superstructure type with the space group Pmn21 (no. 31), a 1⁄4 7.282(1) A, b 1⁄4 6.339(1) A, c 1⁄4 6.075(1) A, V 1⁄4 280.38(8) A3, and Z 1⁄4 2. The refinement converged to R 1⁄4 0.0276, and wR2 1⁄4 0.0710 for 737 unique reflections and 44 parameters. Cu3SbS4 crystallizes tetragonal in an ordered sphalerite superstructure type with the space group I 42m (no. 121), a 1⁄4 5.391(1) A, c 1⁄4 10.764(1) A, V 1⁄4 312.83(9) A3, and Z 1⁄4 2. The refinement converged to R 1⁄4 0.0213, and wR2 1⁄4 0.0532 for 492 unique reflections and 14 parameters. The crystal structures of the title compounds and related normal tetrahedral structures are discussed with respect to the preference of either hexagonal or cubic packing of the anions.

The system Cu3AsS4– Cu3SbS4 and investigations on normal tetrahedral structures

In order to develop a novel model to predict if a so called normal tetrahedral compound crystallizes in a wurtziteor sphalerite superstructure type, the system Cu3AsS4– Cu3SbS4 was reinvestigated. A solid solution series was prepared and the mixed crystals were characterized by powder X-ray techniques. The crystal structures of Cu3As0.330Sb0.670S4, Cu3As0.736Sb0.264S4, and Cu3AsS4 were refined ...

Investigation and Comparison of Light Propagation in Two Graded Photonic Crystal Structures

In this paper, we study two different Graded Index (GRIN) photonic crystal (PC) structures which are named as structure type I and type II. The PC structures are made of the square rod in an air background. To design a GRIN PC structure the lattice constant has been altered in the direction transverse to propagation. We investigated focusing effect             and waveguiding behavior of electr...

Theoretical investigations on molecular structure, NBO, HOMO-LUMO and MEP analysis of two crystal structures of N-(2-benzoyl-phenyl) oxalyl: A DFT study

The N-(2-benzoyl-phenyl) oxalyl derivatives are important models for studying of three-centered intramolecular hydrogen bonding in organic molecules. The quantum theoretical calculations for two crystal structures of N-(2-benzoyl-phenyl) oxalyl (compounds I and II) were performed by Density Functional Theory (B3LYP method and 6-311+G* basis set). From the optimized structures, geometric paramet...
