Revisiting the Si–Te System: SiTe2 Finally Found by Means of Experimental and Quantum-Chemical Techniques

Revisiting the Si–Te System: SiTe2 Finally Found by Means of Experimental and Quantum-Chemical Techniques
Richard Dronskowski, Kai C. Göbgen, Simon Steinberg
The extremely air-sensitive, red Si1.67(4)Te3 has been synthesized and its crystal structure has been determined. Quantum chemical examinations on “SiTe2” models were carried out to provide insight into the electronic structure and the origin of the disorder for the [Si2] dumbbells. The outcome of the present investigations brings light to the pre-existing controversy concerning SiTe2 and Si2Te3.
