Abstract

A study of the alkali metal tetraselenometalate system has afforded two new isostructural phases, Cs₃TaSe₄ and Cs₃NbSe₄. The structures of these phases have been determined by X-ray and neutron powder diffraction techniques. Cs₃TaSe₄ crystallizes in the orthorhombic system (D¹⁶_2h-Pnma, a = 10.277(1), b = 11.918(1), c = 10.238(1) Å) with four formula units in the cell. The structure contains discrete TaSe^3-₄ ions (TaSe, 2.369(4), 2.374(7), 2.397(6) Å) and Cs⁺ cations. Out to 4 Å the Cs cations are surrounded by five or seven Se atoms.
