Materials Data on K3ErSi2O7 by Materials Project
Abstract
K3ErSi2O7 crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3/mcm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are three inequivalent K1+ sites. In the first K1+ site, K1+ is bonded in a distorted hexagonal planar geometry to six equivalent O2- atoms. All K–O bond lengths are 2.77 Å. In the second K1+ site, K1+ is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are a spread of K–O bond distances ranging from 2.77–3.04 Å. In the third K1+ site, K1+ is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to nine O2- atoms. There are six shorter (2.93 Å) and three longer (3.00 Å) K–O bond lengths. There are two inequivalent Er3+ sites. In the first Er3+ site, Er3+ is bonded to six equivalent O2- atoms to form distorted ErO6 pentagonal pyramids that share corners with six equivalent SiO4 tetrahedra. All Er–O bond lengths are 2.28 Å. In the second Er3+ site, Er3+ is bonded to six equivalent O2- atoms to form ErO6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent SiO4 tetrahedra. All Er–O bond lengths are 2.24 Å. Si4+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form SiO4 tetrahedra that share corners with two equivalent ErO6 octahedra, a cornercorner with one ErO6 pentagonal pyramid,more »
