The material described by LaFeSi2 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Cmcm space group. La(1) is bonded in a 14-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Fe(1), four equivalent Si(1), and six equivalent Si(2) atoms. Fe(1) is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four equivalent La(1) and four equivalent Si(1) atoms. There are two inequivalent Si sites. In the first Si site, Si(1) is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four equivalent La(1), four equivalent Fe(1), and one Si(2) atom. In the second Si site, Si(2) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to six equivalent La(1), one Si(1), and two equivalent Si(2) atoms. is represented by the Crystallographic Information File (CIF) [CIF]
