A new phase, Li{sub 4}VO(PO{sub 4}){sub 2} was synthesized by a lithium ion exchange reaction from protonic phase, VO(H{sub 2}PO{sub 4}){sub 2}. The structure was determined from neutron and synchrotron powder diffraction data. The exchange of lithium causes a stress, leading to a change in the dimensionality of the structure from 3D to 2D by the displacement of oxygen atoms. Thus, Li{sub 4}VO(PO{sub 4}){sub 2} crystallizes in P4/n space group with lattice parameters a=8.8204(1) A and c=8.7614(2) A. It consists of double layers [V{sub 2}P{sub 4}O{sub 18}]{sub {infinity}} formed by successive chains of VO{sub 6} octahedra and VO{sub 5} pyramids with isolated PO{sub 4} tetrahedra. The lithium ions located in between the layers promote mobility. Furthermore, the ionic conductivity of 10{sup -4} S/cm at 550 deg. C for Li{sub 4}VO(PO{sub 4}){sub 2} confirms the mobility of lithium ions in the layers. On the other hand, VO(H{sub 2}PO{sub 4}){sub 2} exhibits a conductivity of 10{sup -4} S/cm at room temperature due to the presence of protons in tunnels. - Graphical abstract: Li{sub 4}VO(PO{sub 4}){sub 2} was synthesized by a lithium ion exchange reaction from VO(H{sub 2}PO{sub 4}){sub 2}.
