Materials Data on Mg14CuSi by Materials Project
Abstract
Mg14CuSi crystallizes in the orthorhombic Amm2 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are seven inequivalent Mg sites. In the first Mg site, Mg is bonded to twelve Mg atoms to form a mixture of edge, face, and corner-sharing MgMg12 cuboctahedra. There are a spread of Mg–Mg bond distances ranging from 3.06–3.26 Å. In the second Mg site, Mg is bonded to twelve Mg atoms to form a mixture of edge, face, and corner-sharing MgMg12 cuboctahedra. There are a spread of Mg–Mg bond distances ranging from 3.07–3.26 Å. In the third Mg site, Mg is bonded to eight Mg, two equivalent Cu, and two equivalent Si atoms to form distorted MgMg8Cu2Si2 cuboctahedra that share corners with eighteen MgMg12 cuboctahedra, edges with ten MgMg8Cu2Si2 cuboctahedra, and faces with eight MgMg8Cu2Si2 cuboctahedra. There are a spread of Mg–Mg bond distances ranging from 3.02–3.11 Å. There are one shorter (3.02 Å) and one longer (3.16 Å) Mg–Cu bond lengths. There are one shorter (2.99 Å) and one longer (3.19 Å) Mg–Si bond lengths. In the fourth Mg site, Mg is bonded to twelve Mg atoms to form MgMg12 cuboctahedra that share corners with ten MgMg8Cu2Si2 cuboctahedra, edges with fourteen MgMg12 cuboctahedra, and facesmore »

There are a spread of Mg–Mg bond distances ranging from 3.04–3.15 Å. The Mg–Cu bond length is 2.94 Å. The Mg–Si bond length is 2.96 Å. In the sixth Mg site, Mg is bonded to eleven Mg and one Cu atom to form distorted MgMg11Cu cuboctahedra that share corners with ten MgMg11Cu cuboctahedra, edges with twelve MgMg12 cuboctahedra, and faces with twelve MgMg12 cuboctahedra.
