Crystals of dilithium manganese(II) silicate were grown under high-temperature hydro-thermal conditions in the system LiOH-MnO(2)-SiO(2). The title compound crystallizes in the β(II)-Li(3)PO(4) structure type. The coordination polyhedra of all cations are slightly distorted tetra-hedra (m symmetry for MnO(4) and SiO(4)), which are linked by corner-sharing to each other. The vertices of the tetra-hedra point to the same direction perpendicular to the distorted hexa-gonal close-packed (hcp) array ...[more]
