Abstract
A new Mo7S8 binary sulfide structure and its crystal growth are report ed. It is the first example of Mo atoms in the channels of the Chevrel phases. The single crystal structure determination indicates extra mo lybdenum atoms located in the chalcogen site that is centered at the r hombohedral unit-cell origin. The nature and valence state of these ex tra atoms are discussed through chemical and physical properties. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science Ltd.
