Title: Materials Data on CaMgSiO4 by Materials Project

Abstract

CaMgSiO4 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Ca2+ is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to six O2- atoms. There are a spread of Ca–O bond distances ranging from 2.29–2.76 Å. Mg2+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form MgO6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent SiO4 tetrahedra and edges with two equivalent MgO6 octahedra. There are a spread of Mg–O bond distances ranging from 1.99–2.40 Å. Si4+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form SiO4 tetrahedra that share corners with six equivalent MgO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 42–55°. There are a spread of Si–O bond distances ranging from 1.64–1.66 Å. There are three inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Ca2+, two equivalent Mg2+, and one Si4+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Ca2+, one Mg2+, and one Si4+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Ca2+, two equivalent Mg2+, and one Si4+ atom.
