Title: Materials Data on Li2MgSi by Materials Project

Abstract

Li2MgSi is alpha bismuth trifluoride-derived structured and crystallizes in the cubic F-43m space group. The structure is three-dimensional and consists of four lithium molecules and one LiMgSi framework. In the LiMgSi framework, Li1+ is bonded to four equivalent Si4- atoms to form LiSi4 tetrahedra that share corners with four equivalent MgSi4 tetrahedra, corners with twelve equivalent LiSi4 tetrahedra, and edges with six equivalent MgSi4 tetrahedra. All Li–Si bond lengths are 2.76 Å. Mg2+ is bonded to four equivalent Si4- atoms to form MgSi4 tetrahedra that share corners with four equivalent LiSi4 tetrahedra, corners with twelve equivalent MgSi4 tetrahedra, and edges with six equivalent LiSi4 tetrahedra. All Mg–Si bond lengths are 2.76 Å. Si4- is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to four equivalent Li1+ and four equivalent Mg2+ atoms.
