Abstract

Rare-earth analogs of the mineral bournonite, PbCuSbS3, have been synthesized for the first time and their physicochemical properties have been studied. PbCuSbS3, EuCuSbS3, YbCuSbS3, PbCuLaS3, and PbCuNdS3 are isostructural with each other and crystallize in orthorhombic symmetry with the following unit-cell parameters: a = 8.176, b = 8.660, c = 7.796 Å (PbCuSbS3); a = 8.156, b = 8.68, c = 7.786 Å (EuCuSbS3); a = 8.15, b = 8.64, c = 7.76 Å (YbCuSbS3); a = 8.26, b = 8.84, c = 7.96 Å (PbCuLaS3); a = 8.20, b = 8.80, c = 7.92 Å (PbCuNdS3) (Z = 4, sp. gr. Pmn21).
