Materials Data on Li3MnCr2O6 by Materials Project
Li3Cr2MnO6 is Caswellsilverite-derived structured and crystallizes in the monoclinic C2/m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Li1+ sites. In the first Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form LiO6 octahedra that share corners with two equivalent CrO6 octahedra, corners with four equivalent MnO6 octahedra, edges with two equivalent MnO6 octahedra, edges with four equivalent CrO6 octahedra, and edges with six LiO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 6–9°. There are four shorter (2.18 Å) and two longer (2.24 Å) Li–O bond lengths. In the second Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form LiO6 octahedra that share a cornercorner with one MnO6 octahedra, corners with five equivalent CrO6 octahedra, edges with two equivalent MnO6 octahedra, edges with four equivalent CrO6 octahedra, and edges with six LiO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 4–6°. There are a spread of Li–O bond distances ranging from 2.04–2.39 Å. Cr+3.50+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form CrO6 octahedra that share corners with six LiO6 octahedra, edges with two equivalent MnO6 octahedra, edges with four equivalent CrO6 octahedra, and edges with six LiO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 4–6°. There are a spread of Cr–O bond distances ranging from 2.01–2.06 Å. Mn2+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form MnO6 octahedra that share corners with six LiO6 octahedra, edges with two equivalent MnO6 octahedra, edges with four equivalent CrO6 octahedra, and edges with six LiO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 6–9°. There are four shorter (2.01 Å) and two longer (2.19 Å) Mn–O bond lengths. There are three inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded to three equivalent Li1+, two equivalent Cr+3.50+, and one Mn2+ atom to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing OLi3MnCr2 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 0–2°. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded to three Li1+ and three equivalent Cr+3.50+ atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing OLi3Cr3 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 0–2°. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded to three Li1+, one Cr+3.50+, and two equivalent Mn2+ atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing OLi3Mn2Cr octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 0–1°.
