I8Sb10Ge36

Single crystals of the title compound, octaiodide decaantimonate hexatriacontagermanide, were grown by chemical transport reactions. The structure is isotypic with the analogous clathrates-I. In this structure, the (Ge,Sb)46 framework consists of statistically occupied Ge and Sb sites that atoms for...

In this structure, the (Ge,Sb)46 framework consists of statistically occupied Ge and Sb sites that atoms form bonds in a distorted tetrahedral arrangement. They form polyhedra that are covalently bonded to each other by shared faces. There are two polyhedra of different sizes, viz. a (Ge,Sb)20 dodecahedron and a (Ge,Sb)24 tetracosahedron in a 1:3 ratio.
