Materials Data on Mg3Si4 by Materials Project
Abstract
Mg3Si4 crystallizes in the triclinic P1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are six inequivalent Mg sites. In the first Mg site, Mg is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to five Mg and six Si atoms. There are a spread of Mg–Mg bond distances ranging from 2.92–3.08 Å. There are a spread of Mg–Si bond distances ranging from 2.85–3.04 Å. In the second 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 2.92–3.12 Å. There are a spread of Mg–Si bond distances ranging from 2.87–3.17 Å. In the third Mg site, Mg is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four Mg and five Si atoms. There are a spread of Mg–Mg bond distances ranging from 2.91–3.03 Å. There are a spread of Mg–Si bond distances ranging from 2.83–2.97 Å. In the fourth Mg site, Mg is bonded in a 11-coordinate geometry to three Mg and eight Si atoms. There are a spread of Mg–Si bond distances ranging from 2.77–3.13 Å. In the fifth Mg site, Mg is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to one Mg and nine Si atoms. There are amore »
