Materials Data on Li6MnS4 by Materials Project
Li6MnS4 crystallizes in the tetragonal P4_2/nmc space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Li1+ sites. In the first Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded to four equivalent S2- atoms to form LiS4 tetrahedra that share corners with two equivalent MnS4 tetrahedra, corners with twelve LiS4 tetrahedra, an edgeedge with one MnS4 tetrahedra, and edges with four LiS4 tetrahedra. There are two shorter (2.47 Å) and two longer (2.54 Å) Li–S bond lengths. In the second Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded to four equivalent S2- atoms to form LiS4 tetrahedra that share corners with four equivalent MnS4 tetrahedra, corners with eight equivalent LiS4 tetrahedra, and edges with six LiS4 tetrahedra. There are two shorter (2.42 Å) and two longer (2.45 Å) Li–S bond lengths. Mn2+ is bonded to four equivalent S2- atoms to form MnS4 tetrahedra that share corners with sixteen LiS4 tetrahedra and edges with four equivalent LiS4 tetrahedra. All Mn–S bond lengths are 2.42 Å. S2- is bonded to six Li1+ and one Mn2+ atom to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing SLi6Mn pentagonal bipyramids.
