Materials Data on LiSn(PO3)3 by Materials Project
LiSn(PO3)3 crystallizes in the orthorhombic P2_12_12_1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Li1+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form distorted LiO6 octahedra that share corners with six PO4 tetrahedra and edges with three equivalent SnO6 octahedra. There are a spread of Li–O bond distances ranging from 2.01–2.63 Å. Sn2+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form SnO6 octahedra that share corners with six PO4 tetrahedra and edges with three equivalent LiO6 octahedra. There are a spread of Sn–O bond distances ranging from 2.39–2.54 Å. There are three inequivalent P5+ sites. In the first P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share corners with two equivalent LiO6 octahedra, corners with two equivalent SnO6 octahedra, and corners with two PO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 22–58°. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.49–1.63 Å. In the second P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share corners with two equivalent LiO6 octahedra, corners with two equivalent SnO6 octahedra, and corners with two PO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 38–69°. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.51–1.63 Å. In the third P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share corners with two equivalent LiO6 octahedra, corners with two equivalent SnO6 octahedra, and corners with two PO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 48–56°. There is two shorter (1.51 Å) and two longer (1.61 Å) P–O bond length. There are nine inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to one Li1+, one Sn2+, and one P5+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to one Li1+, one Sn2+, and one P5+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one Li1+, one Sn2+, and one P5+ atom. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to two P5+ atoms. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Li1+, one Sn2+, and one P5+ atom. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to two P5+ atoms. In the seventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to one Li1+, one Sn2+, and one P5+ atom. In the eighth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to one Li1+, one Sn2+, and one P5+ atom. In the ninth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to two P5+ atoms.
