Title: Materials Data on KAlSiO4 by Materials Project

Abstract

KAlSiO4 crystallizes in the triclinic P1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent K1+ sites. In the first K1+ site, K1+ is bonded in a distorted q6 geometry to nine O2- atoms. There are a spread of K–O bond distances ranging from 2.92–3.10 Å. In the second K1+ site, K1+ is bonded in a distorted q6 geometry to nine O2- atoms. There are a spread of K–O bond distances ranging from 2.94–3.12 Å. There are two inequivalent Al3+ sites. In the first Al3+ site, Al3+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form AlO4 tetrahedra that share corners with four SiO4 tetrahedra. There is one shorter (1.75 Å) and three longer (1.76 Å) Al–O bond length. In the second Al3+ site, Al3+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form AlO4 tetrahedra that share corners with four SiO4 tetrahedra. There is one shorter (1.75 Å) and three longer (1.76 Å) Al–O bond length. 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 four AlO4 tetrahedra. There is one shorter (1.63 Å) and three longer (1.64 Å) Si–O bond length. Inmore » the second Si4+ site, Si4+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form SiO4 tetrahedra that share corners with four AlO4 tetrahedra. All Si–O bond lengths are 1.64 Å. There are eight inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to two K1+, one Al3+, and one Si4+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to two K1+, one Al3+, and one Si4+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to two K1+, one Al3+, and one Si4+ atom. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to two K1+, one Al3+, and one Si4+ atom. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to two K1+, one Al3+, and one Si4+ atom. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to two K1+, one Al3+, and one Si4+ atom. In the seventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted linear geometry to three equivalent K1+, one Al3+, and one Si4+ atom. In the eighth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted linear geometry to three equivalent K1+, one Al3+, and one Si4+ atom.« less
