Sb2Te crystallizes in the tetragonal I4_1/amd space group. Sb(1) is bonded to four equivalent Sb(1) and two equivalent Te(1) atoms to form a mixture of face and corner-sharing SbSb4Te2 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 0-77°. Te(1) is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Sb(1) atoms.
