Materials Data on KAl3(SiO4)3 by Materials Project
Abstract
KAl3(SiO4)3 crystallizes in the trigonal P3_1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. K is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six O atoms. There are a spread of K–O bond distances ranging from 2.68–3.23 Å. There are three inequivalent Al sites. In the first Al site, Al is bonded to six O atoms to form 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 1.84–1.99 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 1.83–2.01 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 54–57°. There are a spread of Al–O bond distances ranging from 1.74–1.76 Å. There are three inequivalent Si sites. In the first Si site, Simore »
