Materials Data on LiNb(PO3)4 by Materials Project
Abstract
LiNb(PO3)4 crystallizes in the orthorhombic C222_1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Li1+ is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to three O2- atoms. There are a spread of Li–O bond distances ranging from 1.82–2.18 Å. Nb3+ is bonded to seven O2- atoms to form distorted NbO7 pentagonal bipyramids that share corners with seven PO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Nb–O bond distances ranging from 2.13–2.37 Å. There are five 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 NbO7 pentagonal bipyramids and corners with two PO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.49–1.62 Å. In the second P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share corners with two equivalent NbO7 pentagonal bipyramids and corners with two PO4 tetrahedra. There is two shorter (1.50 Å) and two longer (1.62 Å) P–O bond length. In the third P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share corners with two equivalent NbO7 pentagonal bipyramids and corners with two equivalent PO4 tetrahedra. There is two shorter (1.50 Å) andmore »
