Materials Data on Si2Mo by Materials Project
MoSi2 is Titanium Disilicide-like structured and crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_222 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Mo is bonded in a distorted q6 geometry to ten equivalent Si atoms. There are a spread of Mo–Si bond distances ranging from 2.58–2.69 Å. Si is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to five equivalent Mo and five equivalent Si atoms. There are a spread of Si–Si bond distances ranging from 2.57–2.69 Å.
