Title: Materials Data on Li2Sn(PO3)4 by Materials Project

Abstract

Li2Sn(PO3)4 crystallizes in the tetragonal P4/nbm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Li1+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form LiO6 octahedra that share corners with eight equivalent PO4 tetrahedra. There are four shorter (2.18 Å) and two longer (2.58 Å) Li–O bond lengths. Sn2+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight equivalent O2- atoms. All Sn–O bond lengths are 2.57 Å. P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share corners with four equivalent LiO6 octahedra and corners with two equivalent PO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 43–73°. There is two shorter (1.50 Å) and two longer (1.64 Å) P–O bond length. There are two 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 distorted trigonal non-coplanar geometry to one Li1+ and two equivalent P5+ atoms.
