Materials Data on MgSi by Materials Project
Abstract
MgSi 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 12-coordinate geometry to four Mg and eight Si atoms. There are a spread of Mg–Mg bond distances ranging from 2.86–3.10 Å. There are a spread of Mg–Si bond distances ranging from 2.71–3.09 Å. In the second Mg site, Mg is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to four Mg and six Si atoms. There are a spread of Mg–Mg bond distances ranging from 2.94–3.00 Å. There are a spread of Mg–Si bond distances ranging from 2.83–3.21 Å. In the third Mg site, Mg is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Mg and seven Si atoms. There are one shorter (3.02 Å) and one longer (3.07 Å) Mg–Mg bond lengths. There are a spread of Mg–Si bond distances ranging from 2.84–3.07 Å. In the fourth Mg site, Mg is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to four Mg and eight Si atoms. There are one shorter (2.94 Å) and one longer (3.03 Å) Mg–Mg bond lengths. There are a spread of Mg–Si bond distances ranging from 2.72–3.08 Å. In the fifth Mg site,more »
