A Large Indium Sulfide Supertetrahedral Cluster Built from Integration of ZnS-like Tetrahedral Shell with NaCl-like Octahedral Core
At the core of this cluster is In 10 S 13, which can be considered as a fragment of the NaCl-type lattice. The In 10 S 13 cluster is coupled to four In 4 S 10 supertetrahedral T2 clusters and four In ...
