NH₄PbI₃

L.-Q. Fan and J.-H. Wu

Abstract: Single crystals of ammonium lead iodide, NH₄PbI₃, have been obtained by solid-state reactions. Each Pb^II ion is coordinated by six I^- ions in a distorted octahedral environment. PbI₆ octahedra are connected by common edges, forming a one-dimensional anion chain. All atoms except one H atom in a general position have site symmetry m.
