Materials Data on Ti4Si7Ni4 by Materials Project

Ti4Ni4Si7 crystallizes in the tetragonal I4/mmm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Ti3+ sites. In the first Ti3+ site, Ti3+ is bonded to seven Si+2.86- atoms to form TiSi7 pentagonal bipyramids that share corners with eight equivalent NiSi6 octahedra, corners with eight TiSi7 pentagonal bipyramids, an edgeedge with one TiSi7 pentagonal bipyramid, faces with four equivalent NiSi6 octahedra, and faces with six TiSi7 pentagonal bipyramids. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 40–52°. There are a spread of Ti–Si bond distances ranging from 2.57–2.77 Å. In the second Ti3+ site, Ti3+ is bonded to seven Si+2.86- atoms to form distorted TiSi7 pentagonal bipyramids that share corners with eight equivalent NiSi6 octahedra, corners with eight TiSi7 pentagonal bipyramids, edges with three equivalent TiSi7 pentagonal bipyramids, faces with four equivalent NiSi6 octahedra, and faces with six TiSi7 pentagonal bipyramids. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 40–51°. There are a spread of Ti–Si bond distances ranging from 2.57–2.87 Å. Ni2+ is bonded to six Si+2.86- atoms to form distorted NiSi6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent NiSi6 octahedra, corners with eight TiSi7 pentagonal bipyramids, edges with three equivalent NiSi6 octahedra, faces with two equivalent NiSi6 octahedra, and faces with four TiSi7 pentagonal bipyramids. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 35–41°. There are a spread of Ni–Si bond distances ranging from 2.33–2.38 Å. There are four inequivalent Si+2.86- sites. In the first Si+2.86- site, Si+2.86- is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to eight Ti3+ and two equivalent Si+2.86- atoms. There are one shorter (2.47 Å) and one longer (2.49 Å) Si–Si bond lengths. In the second Si+2.86- site, Si+2.86- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to four Ti3+ and four equivalent Ni2+ atoms. In the third Si+2.86- site, Si+2.86- is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to five Ti3+ and four equivalent Ni2+ atoms. In the fourth Si+2.86- site, Si+2.86- is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to one Ti3+, four equivalent Ni2+, and one Si+2.86- atom. The Si–Si bond length is 2.35 Å.

Materials Data on Ti2SiNi3 by Materials Project

Ti2Ni3Si is Hexagonal Laves-derived structured and crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3/mmc space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Ti is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Ti, nine equivalent Ni, and three equivalent Si atoms. There are one shorter (2.87 Å) and three longer (2.91 Å) Ti–Ti bond lengths. There are three shorter (2.68 Å) and six longer (2.80 Å) Ti–Ni bond lengths. All Ti–Si bond lengths are 2.80 Å. Ni is bonded to six equivalent Ti, four equivalent Ni, and two equivalent Si atoms to form NiTi6Si2Ni4 cuboctahedra that share corners with four equivalent SiTi6Ni6 cuboctahedra, corners with fourteen equivalent NiTi6Si2Ni4 cuboctahedra, edges with six equivalent NiTi6Si2Ni4 cuboctahedra, faces with six equivalent SiTi6Ni6 cuboctahedra, and faces with twelve equivalent NiTi6Si2Ni4 cuboctahedra. There are two shorter (2.35 Å) and two longer (2.45 Å) Ni–Ni bond lengths. Both Ni–Si bond lengths are 2.35 Å. Si is bonded to six equivalent Ti and six equivalent Ni atoms to form SiTi6Ni6 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent NiTi6Si2Ni4 cuboctahedra, edges with six equivalent SiTi6Ni6 cuboctahedra, faces with two equivalent SiTi6Ni6 cuboctahedra, and faces with eighteen equivalent NiTi6Si2Ni4 cuboctahedra.
