Title: Materials Data on MgSi2 by Materials Project

Abstract

MgSi2 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Imma space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Mg is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to ten equivalent Si atoms. There are a spread of Mg–Si bond distances ranging from 2.90–2.96 Å. Si is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to five equivalent Mg and four equivalent Si atoms. There are a spread of Si–Si bond distances ranging from 2.44–2.55 Å.
