Materials Data on LaScSi by Materials Project
LaScSi crystallizes in the tetragonal I4/mmm space group. The structure is two-dimensional and consists of two LaScSi sheets oriented in the (0, 0, 1) direction. La2+ is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Si4- atoms. All La–Si bond lengths are 3.14 Å. Sc2+ is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Si4- atoms. All Sc–Si bond lengths are 2.79 Å. Si4- is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to four equivalent La2+ and four equivalent Sc2+ atoms.
