Abstract
Electrical and thermal transport measurements on quenched NaCl-type Ag1/3Pb1/3Sb1/3Se reveal an n-type semiconductor with a Seebeck coefficient up to −140 μVK−1 and a thermal conductivity as low as 0.52 WmK−1. Short-range order is indicated by disorder diffuse scattering in electron diffraction patterns. In contrast, 4L-Ag0.61Pb1.79Sb2.61Se6 (space group Cmcm with a = 4.2129(1) Å, b = 13.852(1) Å, and c = 20.866(1) Å, Z = 4) features the first lillianite-type structure in the system Ag/Pb/Sb/Se. It consists of slab-like NaCl-type building blocks that are interconnected via trigonal [PbSe6] prisms. As such structures typically do not form with Te as an anion, the first “sulfosalt-like” compound, Ag0.38Pb0.25Sb2.38Te4, in the system Ag/Pb/Sb/Te forms a layered tetradymite-like structure (space group R3-m with a = 4.2887(1) Å, c = 41.544(1) Å, Z = 3). Its slabs, which are separated by van der Waals gaps, are built up from three layers of distorted [MTe6] octahedra. Crystals of Ag0.38Pb0.25Sb2.38Te4 were grown by chemical transport.
期刊介绍：
Crystals (ISSN 2073-4352) is an open access journal that covers all aspects of crystalline material research. Crystals can act as a reference, and as a publication resource, to the community. It publishes reviews, regular research articles, and short communications. Our aim is to encourage scientists to publish their experimental and theoretical results in as much detail as possible. Therefore, there is no restriction on article length. Full experimental details must be provided to enable the results to be reproduced. Crystals provides a forum for the advancement of our understanding of the nucleation, growth, processing, and characterization of crystalline materials. Their mechanical, chemical, electronic, magnetic, and optical properties, and their diverse applications, are all considered to be of importance.
