Title: Materials Data on Y2Si2O7 by Materials Project

Abstract

Y2Si2O7 crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/c space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Y3+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form distorted YO6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent SiO4 tetrahedra and edges with three equivalent YO6 octahedra. There are a spread of Y–O bond distances ranging from 2.27–2.35 Å. Si4+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form SiO4 tetrahedra that share corners with six equivalent YO6 octahedra and a cornercorner with one SiO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 42–61°. There are a spread of Si–O bond distances ranging from 1.64–1.66 Å. There are four inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to two equivalent Y3+ and one Si4+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Y3+ and one Si4+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a linear geometry to two equivalent Si4+ atoms. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Y3+ and one Si4+ atom.
