Is there any thermodynamically stable suboxide that can be obtained from heat treatment of nano-silicon under air, other than SiO2?

This question is related to my previous one ! I wonder if amorphous silicon can form intermediately another oxide than SiO2, due to better diffusion of O2 into non crystalline structure. Thanks!
