Framework Contraction in Na-Stuffed Si(cF136)
Inorganic Chemistry, 2010Systematic crystal structure refinements from powder X-ray diffraction data as well as density functional theory calculations demonstrate that the silicon clathrate II Si(cF136) exhibits a lattice contraction as Na is introduced solely into the Si(28) cages. When the Si(20) cages, in addition, begin to be filled with Na, a contrasting lattice expansion
