The crystal structure described by SiO2 crystallizes in the trigonal P-31m space group. Si(1) is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to one O(2), one O(3), and two equivalent O(1) atoms. There are three inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O(3) is bonded in a linear geometry to two equivalent Si(1) atoms. In the second O site, O(1) is bonded in a linear geometry to two equivalent Si(1) atoms. In the third O site, O(2) is bonded in a linear geometry to two equivalent Si(1) atoms. is represented by the CIF card [CIF]
