Materials Data on Nd2MnSi2 by Materials Project
Nd2MnSi2 crystallizes in the tetragonal P4/mmm space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of one Nd2MnSi2 cluster. Nd3+ is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one Si4- atom. The Nd–Si bond length is 2.96 Å. Mn2+ is bonded in a linear geometry to two equivalent Si4- atoms. Both Mn–Si bond lengths are 2.28 Å. Si4- is bonded in a distorted linear geometry to one Nd3+ and one Mn2+ atom.
