Notes:
The structure of dilutetium silicon pentaoxide, Lu2SiO5, has isolated ionic SiO4 tetrahedral units and non-Si-bonded O atoms in distorted OLu4 tetrahedra. The OLu4 tetrahedra form edge-sharing infinite chains and double O2Lu6 tetrahedra along the c axis. The edge-sharing chains are connected to the O2Lu6 double tetrahedra by isolated SiO4 units. The structure has been determined by neutron diffraction.
