Abstract

Single crystals of CsU₂Te₆ were synthesized from the reaction of U, Te, and Cs₂Te₃ at 1273 K. CsU ₂Te₆ crystallizes in the space group Cmcm in the CsTh ₂Te₆ structure type. The asymmetric unit comprises one U (site symmetry m2m), one Cs (m2m; half-occupancy) and two Te atoms (m.. and m2m). The structure of CsU₂Te₆ consists of infinite [U₂Te₆] layers perpendicular to [010] separated by Cs atoms. There are infinite Te-Te-Te linear chains along [001].
