Materials Data on Na2ScIn(SiO3)4 by Materials Project
Na2ScIn(SiO3)4 is Esseneite-derived structured and crystallizes in the monoclinic C2 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Na1+ sites. In the first Na1+ site, Na1+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are a spread of Na–O bond distances ranging from 2.40–2.95 Å. In the second Na1+ site, Na1+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are a spread of Na–O bond distances ranging from 2.42–2.94 Å. Sc3+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form ScO6 octahedra that share corners with six SiO4 tetrahedra and edges with two equivalent InO6 octahedra. There are a spread of Sc–O bond distances ranging from 2.03–2.24 Å. In3+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form InO6 octahedra that share corners with six SiO4 tetrahedra and edges with two equivalent ScO6 octahedra. There are a spread of In–O bond distances ranging from 2.11–2.25 Å. There are two inequivalent Si4+ sites. In the first Si4+ site, Si4+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form SiO4 tetrahedra that share a cornercorner with one InO6 octahedra, corners with two equivalent ScO6 octahedra, and corners with two equivalent SiO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 33–59°. There are a spread of Si–O bond distances ranging from 1.62–1.67 Å. In the second Si4+ site, Si4+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form SiO4 tetrahedra that share a cornercorner with one ScO6 octahedra, corners with two equivalent InO6 octahedra, and corners with two equivalent SiO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 36–59°. There are a spread of Si–O bond distances ranging from 1.60–1.67 Å. There are six inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted T-shaped geometry to one Na1+, one Sc3+, and one Si4+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted T-shaped geometry to one Na1+, one In3+, and one Si4+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to two Na1+ and two Si4+ atoms. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to two Na1+ and two Si4+ atoms. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to one Na1+, one Sc3+, one In3+, and one Si4+ atom. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to one Na1+, one Sc3+, one In3+, and one Si4+ atom.
