The Materials Project

AgSi3 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Cmcm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Ag is bonded to twelve Si atoms to form a mixture of face and corner-sharing AgSi12 cuboctahedra. There are a spread of Ag–Si bond distances ranging from 2.82–2.96 Å. There are two inequivalent Si sites. In the first Si site, Si is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Ag and six Si atoms. There are a spread of Si–Si bond distances ranging from 2.60–2.82 Å. In the second Si site, Si is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Ag and six equivalent Si atoms.
