Cover Story: The layered VMg4Si8 complex, which is the second most stable complex of VMg4Si8, becomes stable upon the addition of Mg atoms to the adjacent layers because of the formation of Mg–Si bonds. When five Mg atoms were added to the layered VMg4Si8 complex, the central Mg atom completely shifted to the Si layer, and a Mg vacancy was formed in the Mg layer. Therefore, the layered VMg4Si8 + Mg5 complex has the same structure as the β″-eye. These results indicate that the layered VMg4Si8 complex evolves into the β″-eye upon the addition of Mg atoms. View this paper
