Title: Materials Data on MgSiN2 by Materials Project

Abstract

MgSiN2 is Chalcopyrite structured and crystallizes in the tetragonal I-42d space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Mg2+ is bonded to four equivalent N3- atoms to form MgN4 tetrahedra that share corners with four equivalent MgN4 tetrahedra and corners with eight equivalent SiN4 tetrahedra. All Mg–N bond lengths are 2.11 Å. Si4+ is bonded to four equivalent N3- atoms to form SiN4 tetrahedra that share corners with four equivalent SiN4 tetrahedra and corners with eight equivalent MgN4 tetrahedra. All Si–N bond lengths are 1.76 Å. N3- is bonded to two equivalent Mg2+ and two equivalent Si4+ atoms to form corner-sharing NMg2Si2 tetrahedra.
