description: Nb4V3FeSe20 crystallizes in the monoclinic Pm space group. The structure is two-dimensional and consists of one Nb4V3FeSe20 sheet oriented in the (1, 0, -1) direction. there are four inequivalent Nb5+ sites. In the first Nb5+ site, Nb5+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight Se+1.70- atoms. There are a spread of Nb–Se bond distances ranging from 2.65–2.77 Å.
