Abstract
Section titled “Abstract”Reported here is a unique crystalline semiconductor open-framework material built from the large-sized supertetrahedral T4 and T5 clusters with the Mn-In-S compositions. The hybrid assembly between T4 and T5 clusters by sharing terminal μ<sub>2</sub>-S<sup>2-</sup> is for the first time observed among the cluster-based chalcogenide open frameworks. Such three-dimensional structure displays non-interpenetrated diamond-type topology with extra-large nonframework volume of 82%. Moreover, ion exchange, CO<sub>2</sub> adsorption, as well as photoluminescence properties of the title compound are also investigated.
