Ga2Te3 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Imm2 space group. Ga(1) is bonded to one Te(2) and three equivalent Te(1) atoms to form corner-sharing GaTe4 tetrahedra. There are two inequivalent Te sites. In the first Te site, Te(1) is bonded in a trigonal non-coplanar geometry to three equivalent Ga(1) atoms. In the second Te site, Te(2) is bonded in a water-like geometry to two equivalent Ga(1) atoms.
Ga2Te3 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Imm2 space group. Ga(1) is bonded to one Te(2) and three equivalent Te(1) atoms to form corner-sharing GaTe4 tetrahedra. The Ga(1)-Te(2) bond length is 2.58 Å. There is one shorter (2.68 Å) and two longer (2.71 Å) Ga(1)-Te(1) bond lengths. There are two inequivalent Te sites. In the first Te site, Te(1) is bonded in a trigonal non-coplanar geometry to three equivalent Ga(1) atoms. In the second Te site, Te(2) is bonded in a water-like geometry to two equivalent Ga(1) atoms.
