Materials Data on Cs2Th(Si2O5)3 by Materials Project
Abstract
Cs2Th(Si2O5)3 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Cmc2_1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Cs1+ sites. In the first Cs1+ site, Cs1+ is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to eleven O2- atoms. There are a spread of Cs–O bond distances ranging from 3.34–3.77 Å. In the second Cs1+ site, Cs1+ is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to five O2- atoms. There are two shorter (3.27 Å) and three longer (3.47 Å) Cs–O bond lengths. Th4+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form ThO6 octahedra that share corners with six SiO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Th–O bond distances ranging from 2.29–2.33 Å. There are four inequivalent Si4+ sites. In the first Si4+ site, Si4+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form SiO4 tetrahedra that share a cornercorner with one ThO6 octahedra and corners with three SiO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 33°. There are a spread of Si–O bond distances ranging from 1.60–1.64 Å. In the second Si4+ site, Si4+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form SiO4 tetrahedra that share a cornercorner with one ThO6 octahedra and corners with three SiO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 48°. There aremore »
