(a) Structure of the Zintl phase SrAl2 (sra type). Al atoms, converted into Ψ-Si, form a four-connected skeleton, in accordance with the 8-N rule. (b) One of the accordion-like moieties that are condensed in the structure of the Zintl polyanion Ψ-Si2. The same skeleton is formed by the [AlSi]Ψ-[Si2] subarray in isostructural RbAlSiO4.
