Abstract
The compounds MIn3S5 (M = Rb, Cs) represent new ternary
chalcogenides on the quasi binary section M2S-In2S3 (M = Rb,
Cs) with the two binary phases in a molar ratio of 1:3. RbIn3S5
and CsIn3S5 (both red-transparent) crystallize in a new
structure type (SG: P2/m, Z = 3). The indium atoms are
coordinated by sulfur atoms with tetrahedral as well as
octahedral arrangement, while the coordination numbers of the
two crystallographically independent M atoms are nine and ten.
A special feature of these solids is the slightly distorted
joint ccp arrangement of the sulfur and alkali metal atoms. The
crystals of both solids are characterized by a systematic
twinning based on the peculiarity just mentioned. The twinnig
law and the atomic arrangement at the twin interface have been
investigated by single crystal X-Ray diffraction and high
resolution electron microscopy (HREM).
