Materials Data on Mn2CoSi by Materials Project

Abstract

Mn2CoSi is Zintl Phase-derived structured and crystallizes in the cubic F-43m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Mn sites. In the first Mn site, Mn is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Mn, four equivalent Co, and six equivalent Si atoms. All Mn–Mn bond lengths are 2.44 Å. All Mn–Co bond lengths are 2.44 Å. All Mn–Si bond lengths are 2.81 Å. In the second Mn site, Mn is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Mn, six equivalent Co, and four equivalent Si atoms. All Mn–Co bond lengths are 2.81 Å. All Mn–Si bond lengths are 2.44 Å. Co is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to ten Mn and four equivalent Si atoms. All Co–Si bond lengths are 2.44 Å. Si is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to ten Mn and four equivalent Co atoms.
