Materials Data on VCo2Si by Materials Project
Co2VSi is Heusler structured and crystallizes in the cubic Fm-3m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. V2+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight equivalent Co1+ and six equivalent Si4- atoms. All V–Co bond lengths are 2.46 Å. All V–Si bond lengths are 2.84 Å. Co1+ is bonded in a distorted body-centered cubic geometry to four equivalent V2+ and four equivalent Si4- atoms. All Co–Si bond lengths are 2.46 Å. Si4- is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to six equivalent V2+ and eight equivalent Co1+ atoms.
