Materials Data on Rb2CdSi5O12 by Materials Project
Rb2CdSi5O12 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pbca space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Rb1+ sites. In the first Rb1+ site, Rb1+ is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to two O2- atoms. There are one shorter (2.87 Å) and one longer (2.90 Å) Rb–O bond lengths. In the second Rb1+ site, Rb1+ is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to two O2- atoms. There are one shorter (2.89 Å) and one longer (2.95 Å) Rb–O bond lengths. Cd2+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form distorted CdO4 tetrahedra that share corners with four SiO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Cd–O bond distances ranging from 2.19–2.21 Å. There are five 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 CdO4 tetrahedra and corners with three SiO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Si–O bond distances ranging from 1.59–1.66 Å. In the second Si4+ site, Si4+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form SiO4 tetrahedra that share a cornercorner with one CdO4 tetrahedra and corners with three SiO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Si–O bond distances ranging from 1.59–1.66 Å. In the third Si4+ site, Si4+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form SiO4 tetrahedra that share a cornercorner with one CdO4 tetrahedra and corners with three SiO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Si–O bond distances ranging from 1.60–1.66 Å. In the fourth Si4+ site, Si4+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form SiO4 tetrahedra that share a cornercorner with one CdO4 tetrahedra and corners with three SiO4 tetrahedra. There is one shorter (1.60 Å) and three longer (1.65 Å) Si–O bond length. In the fifth Si4+ site, Si4+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form corner-sharing SiO4 tetrahedra. There is one shorter (1.62 Å) and three longer (1.63 Å) Si–O bond length. There are twelve inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to two Si4+ atoms. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to two Si4+ atoms. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to two Si4+ atoms. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Rb1+, one Cd2+, and one Si4+ atom. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to one Rb1+, one Cd2+, and one Si4+ atom. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Rb1+, one Cd2+, and one Si4+ atom. In the seventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to two Si4+ atoms. In the eighth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to two Si4+ atoms. In the ninth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to two Si4+ atoms. In the tenth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to two Si4+ atoms. In the eleventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to one Rb1+, one Cd2+, and one Si4+ atom. In the twelfth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to two Si4+ atoms.
