The material described by AgAlSiO4 crystallizes in the trigonal R3c space group. Ag(1) is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to one O(2), one O(3), and one O(4) atom. Al(1) is bonded to one O(1), one O(2), one O(3), and one O(4) atom to form AlO4 tetrahedra that share corners with four equivalent Si(1)O4 tetrahedra. Si(1) is bonded to one O(1), one O(2), one O(3), and one O(4) atom to form SiO4 tetrahedra that share corners with four equivalent Al(1)O4 tetrahedra. There are four inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O(1) is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Al(1) and one Si(1) atom. In the second O site, O(2) is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to one Ag(1), one Al(1), and one Si(1) atom. In the third O site, O(3) is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Ag(1), one Al(1), and one Si(1) atom. In the fourth O site, O(4) is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Ag(1), one Al(1), and one Si(1) atom. is represented by the Crystallographic Information File (CIF) [CIF]
