Abstract

The Rb3Ln3Zn2S8 (Ln = Eu, Gd, Ho) and Cs0.88Rb2.12Tb3Zn2S8 layered compounds are prepared for the first time by a reaction of the corresponding lanthanide sulfides with zinc sulfide, rubidium polysulfide, using RbCl as a flux. The synthesized compounds crystallize in the monoclinic space group C2/m. Their crystal structure can be described as a combination of motifs characteristic of KZrCuS3 and α-NaFeO2 structure types. The optical band gaps determined by the Kubelka–Munk method are 1.90 eV (Eu), 3.54 eV (Gd), 3.55 eV (Tb), and 3.42 eV (Ho).
