Materials Data on Li3Al(BO3)2 by Materials Project
Li3AlB2O6 crystallizes in the triclinic P-1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are three inequivalent Li1+ sites. In the first Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to three O2- atoms. There is one shorter (1.96 Å) and two longer (1.97 Å) Li–O bond length. In the second Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form distorted LiO4 tetrahedra that share corners with two equivalent LiO4 trigonal pyramids, an edgeedge with one AlO4 tetrahedra, and an edgeedge with one LiO4 trigonal pyramid. There are a spread of Li–O bond distances ranging from 1.87–2.21 Å. In the third Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form distorted LiO4 trigonal pyramids that share a cornercorner with one AlO4 tetrahedra, corners with two equivalent LiO4 tetrahedra, an edgeedge with one LiO4 tetrahedra, and an edgeedge with one LiO4 trigonal pyramid. There are a spread of Li–O bond distances ranging from 1.94–2.16 Å. Al3+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form AlO4 tetrahedra that share a cornercorner with one LiO4 trigonal pyramid and an edgeedge with one LiO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Al–O bond distances ranging from 1.76–1.78 Å. There are two inequivalent B3+ sites. In the first B3+ site, B3+ is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three O2- atoms. There is one shorter (1.36 Å) and two longer (1.41 Å) B–O bond length. In the second B3+ site, B3+ is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three O2- atoms. There are a spread of B–O bond distances ranging from 1.36–1.42 Å. There are six inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Li1+, one Al3+, and one B3+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to three Li1+ and one B3+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to one Li1+, one Al3+, and one B3+ atom. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to two Li1+, one Al3+, and one B3+ atom. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted tetrahedral geometry to three Li1+ and one B3+ atom. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to one Li1+, one Al3+, and one B3+ atom.
