Title: Materials Data on Mg4Si3 by Materials Project

Abstract

Mg4Si3 crystallizes in the triclinic P1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are eight inequivalent Mg sites. In the first Mg site, Mg is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six Si atoms. There are a spread of Mg–Si bond distances ranging from 2.74–2.94 Å. In the second Mg site, Mg is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four Si atoms. There are a spread of Mg–Si bond distances ranging from 2.82–2.93 Å. In the third Mg site, Mg is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to five Si atoms. There are a spread of Mg–Si bond distances ranging from 2.64–2.84 Å. In the fourth Mg site, Mg is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to five Si atoms. There are a spread of Mg–Si bond distances ranging from 2.63–3.02 Å. In the fifth Mg site, Mg is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four Si atoms. There are a spread of Mg–Si bond distances ranging from 2.83–2.89 Å. In the sixth Mg site, Mg is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to five Si atoms. There are a spread of Mg–Si bond distances ranging from 2.62–3.02 Å. In the seventh Mg site, Mg is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to sixmore » Si atoms. There are a spread of Mg–Si bond distances ranging from 2.77–3.01 Å. In the eighth Mg site, Mg is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to five Si atoms. There are a spread of Mg–Si bond distances ranging from 2.67–2.90 Å. There are six inequivalent Si sites. In the first Si site, Si is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to seven Mg and one Si atom. The Si–Si bond length is 2.45 Å. In the second Si site, Si is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to seven Mg and two Si atoms. The Si–Si bond length is 2.79 Å. In the third Si site, Si is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six Mg atoms. In the fourth Si site, Si is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to seven Mg and one Si atom. The Si–Si bond length is 2.45 Å. In the fifth Si site, Si is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six Mg and two Si atoms. The Si–Si bond length is 2.80 Å. In the sixth Si site, Si is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to seven Mg and two Si atoms.« less
