Silicon Nitrides - an overview | ScienceDirect Topics
Silicon nitride can have either of two crystalline structures. The α-Si 3 N 4 phase is hexagonal, with each nitrogen atom bonded to three silicon atoms in a distorted trigonal planar configuration and each silicon atom tetrahedrally bonded to four nitrogen atoms (Wyckoff, 1964).The more common phase, β-Si 3 N 4, has the phenacite structure consisting of a trigonal arrangement of silicon ...
