The structure of the ionic conductor Na1.8Be0.9Si1.1O4 has been refined with the Rietveld Profile Refinement technique, based on X-ray powder diffraction data. The unit cell parameters were found to be a = 4.920, b = 9.876 and c = 13.922 angstrom. With space group symmetry Pcba assumed, the refinement yielded R(F) = 0.049 and R(wp) = 0.088. The cristobalite-related structure is built up of corner-shared [MeO4]-tetrahedra, with Me = Si and Be. The Si4+ and Be2+ ions are statistically distributed and the Na+ ions, located in the cavities formed by the tetrahedra, are found to be five- and four-coordinated. The findings are discussed in relation to the structure of Na2BeSiO4 and migration pathways for the Na+ ions.
