Materials Data on Li4P2O7 by Materials Project
Li4P2O7 is Clathrate-derived structured and crystallizes in the triclinic P-1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are four inequivalent Li1+ sites. In the first Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form LiO4 tetrahedra that share corners with three LiO4 tetrahedra, corners with four PO4 tetrahedra, and edges with two LiO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Li–O bond distances ranging from 1.91–2.01 Å. In the second Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form LiO4 tetrahedra that share corners with four LiO4 tetrahedra, corners with four PO4 tetrahedra, and an edgeedge with one LiO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Li–O bond distances ranging from 1.95–2.04 Å. In the third Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form LiO4 tetrahedra that share corners with four PO4 tetrahedra, corners with five LiO4 tetrahedra, and an edgeedge with one LiO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Li–O bond distances ranging from 1.96–2.04 Å. In the fourth Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form distorted LiO4 tetrahedra that share corners with two equivalent LiO4 tetrahedra, corners with three equivalent PO4 tetrahedra, an edgeedge with one LiO4 tetrahedra, and an edgeedge with one PO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Li–O bond distances ranging from 1.91–2.10 Å. There are two inequivalent P5+ sites. In the first P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share a cornercorner with one PO4 tetrahedra and corners with eight LiO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.52–1.65 Å. In the second P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share a cornercorner with one PO4 tetrahedra, corners with seven LiO4 tetrahedra, and an edgeedge with one LiO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.52–1.65 Å. There are seven inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to two Li1+ and one P5+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded to three Li1+ and one P5+ atom to form distorted corner-sharing OLi3P trigonal pyramids. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded to three Li1+ and one P5+ atom to form a mixture of distorted corner and edge-sharing OLi3P trigonal pyramids. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to two Li1+ and one P5+ atom. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted T-shaped geometry to two Li1+ and one P5+ atom. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded to three Li1+ and one P5+ atom to form a mixture of corner and edge-sharing OLi3P tetrahedra. In the seventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted T-shaped geometry to one Li1+ and two P5+ atoms.
