Materials Data on Sc3(Si2Ni)2 by Materials Project
Abstract
Sc3(NiSi2)2 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are three inequivalent Sc2+ sites. In the first Sc2+ site, Sc2+ is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to seven Si2- atoms. There are a spread of Sc–Si bond distances ranging from 2.61–2.85 Å. In the second Sc2+ site, Sc2+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight Si2- atoms. There are a spread of Sc–Si bond distances ranging from 2.83–3.02 Å. In the third Sc2+ site, Sc2+ is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to seven Si2- atoms. There are a spread of Sc–Si bond distances ranging from 2.68–3.15 Å. There are two inequivalent Ni1+ sites. In the first Ni1+ site, Ni1+ is bonded to five Si2- atoms to form distorted NiSi5 square pyramids that share corners with two equivalent NiSi5 square pyramids, a cornercorner with one NiSi4 tetrahedra, and edges with two equivalent NiSi5 square pyramids. There are a spread of Ni–Si bond distances ranging from 2.33–2.42 Å. In the second Ni1+ site, Ni1+ is bonded to four Si2- atoms to form NiSi4 tetrahedra that share a cornercorner with one NiSi5 square pyramid, corners with two equivalent NiSi4 tetrahedra, and edges with two equivalent NiSi4 tetrahedra.

In the second Si2- site, Si2- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to four Sc2+, three equivalent Ni1+, and two equivalent Si2- atoms. Both Si–Si bond lengths are 2.54 Å. In the third Si2- site, Si2- is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to six Sc2+, three equivalent Ni1+, and one Si2- atom. The Si–Si bond length is 2.43 Å.
