Abstract
Ca2SiO4 crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/c space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are four inequivalent Ca2+ sites. In the first Ca2+ site, Ca2+ is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to five O2- atoms. There are a spread of Ca–O bond distances ranging from 2.23–2.83 Å. In the second Ca2+ site, Ca2+ is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to seven O2- atoms. There are a spread of Ca–O bond distances ranging from 2.31–2.89 Å. In the third Ca2+ site, Ca2+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form distorted CaO6 octahedra that share corners with two equivalent CaO5 square pyramids, corners with four SiO4 tetrahedra, an edgeedge with one CaO6 octahedra, and an edgeedge with one SiO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Ca–O bond distances ranging from 2.28–2.73 Å. In the fourth Ca2+ site, Ca2+ is bonded to five O2- atoms to form distorted CaO5 square pyramids that share corners with two equivalent CaO6 octahedra, corners with three SiO4 tetrahedra, and an edgeedge with one SiO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 71–83°. There are a spread of Ca–O bond distances ranging from 2.29–2.54 Å. There are two inequivalent Si4+ sites. In the first Si4+ site, Si4+more »
