43 Conclusion 1.DFT evolutionary search for global minima of Mg 2 Si silicide reproduces the experimental structures at pressure range 0–25 GPa 2.The P63/mmc structure is not the global minimum one. 3.A new possible high-pressure structure Cmcm was predicted, that is a little more stable than that.
