Abstract
MgSi crystallizes in the monoclinic Cm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are six inequivalent Mg sites. In the first Mg site, Mg is bonded in a 11-coordinate geometry to five Mg and six Si atoms. There are a spread of Mg–Mg bond distances ranging from 2.87–3.02 Å. There are a spread of Mg–Si bond distances ranging from 2.89–3.18 Å. In the second Mg site, Mg is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to four Mg and eight Si atoms. There are two shorter (2.91 Å) and two longer (3.11 Å) Mg–Mg bond lengths. There are a spread of Mg–Si bond distances ranging from 2.72–3.16 Å. In the third Mg site, Mg is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Mg and eight Si atoms. There are a spread of Mg–Si bond distances ranging from 2.67–3.24 Å. In the fourth Mg site, Mg is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to eight Si atoms. There are a spread of Mg–Si bond distances ranging from 2.69–3.17 Å. In the fifth Mg site, Mg is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to four Mg and seven Si atoms. There are a spread of Mg–Si bond distances ranging from 2.87–2.98 Å. In the sixthmore »
