Title: Materials Data on K2Si4O9 by Materials Project

Abstract

K2Si4O9 crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3/m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. K1+ is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to nine O2- atoms. There are a spread of K–O bond distances ranging from 2.84–3.04 Å. There are two inequivalent Si4+ sites. In the first Si4+ site, Si4+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form SiO4 tetrahedra that share corners with two equivalent SiO6 octahedra and corners with two equivalent SiO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 38°. There are a spread of Si–O bond distances ranging from 1.61–1.68 Å. In the second Si4+ site, Si4+ is bonded to six equivalent O2- atoms to form corner-sharing SiO6 octahedra. All Si–O bond lengths are 1.80 Å. There are two inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to two equivalent K1+ and two Si4+ atoms. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to two equivalent K1+ and two equivalent Si4+ atoms.
