There are a spread of Ce–O bond distances ranging from 2.35–2.82 Å. Al3+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form AlO4 tetrahedra that share a cornercorner with one CeO7 pentagonal bipyramid and corners with four SiO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Al–O bond distances ranging from 1.75–1.77 Å. There are four inequivalent Si4+ sites. In the first Si4+ site, Si4+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form SiO4 tetrahedra that share corners with two equivalent CeO7 pentagonal bipyramids and corners with two SiO4 tetrahedra. There is two shorter (1.62 Å) and two longer (1.68 Å) Si–O bond length. In the second Si4+ site, Si4+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form SiO4 tetrahedra that share a cornercorner with one CeO7 pentagonal bipyramid, a cornercorner with one AlO4 tetrahedra, corners with two SiO4 tetrahedra, and an edgeedge with one CeO7 pentagonal bipyramid. There are a spread of Si–O bond distances ranging from 1.63–1.65 Å. In the third Si4+ site, Si4+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form SiO4 tetrahedra that share corners with two equivalent CeO7 pentagonal bipyramids, a cornercorner with one AlO4 tetrahedra, and corners with two SiO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Si–O bond distances ranging from 1.62–1.66 Å. In the fourth Si4+ site, Si4+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form SiO4 tetrahedra that share corners with two equivalent AlO4 tetrahedra and corners with two SiO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Si–O bond distances ranging from 1.62–1.65 Å. There are twelve inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to two Si4+ atoms. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to one Ce3+, one Al3+, and one Si4+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to one K1+ and two Si4+ atoms. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to one K1+, one Al3+, and one Si4+ atom. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to one K1+, one Al3+, and one Si4+ atom. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Ce3+ and one Si4+ atom. In the seventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to one K1+ and two Si4+ atoms. In the eighth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to one K1+, two equivalent Ce3+, and one Si4+ atom. In the ninth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to two equivalent K1+ and two Si4+ atoms. In the tenth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to two equivalent K1+, one Ce3+, and one Si4+ atom. In the eleventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to two K1+, one Ce3+, and one Si4+ atom. In the twelfth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to one K1+, one Al3+, and one Si4+ atom.
