Figure 9
Orthoslices of ELI-D of the Te layer of LaTe1.82(1) with isocontour lines. (a) The largely unordered model in Amm2, with bent Te3 units in the Te8 entities and a Te4 square. (b) The essentially ordered model in P1, exhibiting linear Te22− units in the Te8 entities and with only one Te22− anion instead of a Te4 square. Both pictures hint towards the interactions between different Te fragments in the planar layer. |
