The Materials Project

LaSi crystallizes in the orthorhombic Cmcm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent La sites. In the first La site, La is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Si atoms. There are four shorter (3.17 Å) and two longer (3.22 Å) La–Si bond lengths. In the second La site, La is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight equivalent Si atoms. There are four shorter (3.14 Å) and four longer (3.24 Å) La–Si bond lengths. Si is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to seven La and two equivalent Si atoms. There are one shorter (2.49 Å) and one longer (2.59 Å) Si–Si bond lengths.
