Stoichiometric ZrGeTe4

C.-H. Lee, G.-J. Jang and H. Yun

Abstract: Zirconium germanium tetratelluride, ZrGeTe4, is isostructural with Hf0.85GeTe4 [Mar & Ibers (1993). J. Am Chem. Soc. 115, 3227-3238], but the Zr site in ZrGeTe4 is fully occupied and the compound is stoichiometric. ZrGeTe4 adopts a layered structural type. Each layer is composed of two unique one-dimensional chains of face-sharing Zr-centered bicapped trigonal prisms and corner-sharing Ge-centered tetrahedra.
