Materials Data on KAl3(SiO4)3 by Materials Project
Abstract
KAl3(SiO4)3 crystallizes in the monoclinic Cc space group. The structure is two-dimensional and consists of two KAl3(SiO4)3 sheets oriented in the (0, 0, 1) direction. K is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to three O atoms. There are a spread of K–O bond distances ranging from 2.71–2.77 Å. There are three inequivalent Al sites. In the first Al site, Al is bonded to six O atoms to form distorted AlO6 octahedra that share a cornercorner with one AlO4 tetrahedra, corners with three SiO4 tetrahedra, and edges with three equivalent AlO6 octahedra. There are a spread of Al–O bond distances ranging from 1.80–2.03 Å. In the second Al site, Al is bonded to six O atoms to form distorted AlO6 octahedra that share a cornercorner with one AlO4 tetrahedra, corners with three SiO4 tetrahedra, and edges with three equivalent AlO6 octahedra. There are a spread of Al–O bond distances ranging from 1.84–2.02 Å. In the third Al site, Al is bonded to four O atoms to form AlO4 tetrahedra that share corners with two AlO6 octahedra and corners with three equivalent SiO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 52–56°. There is one shorter (1.74 Å) and three longer (1.76more »
