GeTe crystallizes in the trigonal R3m space group. Ge(1) is bonded to four equivalent Te(1) atoms to form corner-sharing GeTe4 trigonal pyramids. Te(1) is bonded to four equivalent Ge(1) atoms to form corner-sharing TeGe4 trigonal pyramids.
GeTe crystallizes in the trigonal R3m space group. Ge(1) is bonded to four equivalent Te(1) atoms to form corner-sharing GeTe4 trigonal pyramids. There is one shorter (2.77 Å) and three longer (2.96 Å) Ge(1)-Te(1) bond lengths. Te(1) is bonded to four equivalent Ge(1) atoms to form corner-sharing TeGe4 trigonal pyramids.
