Abstract
Li7Si2 is zeta silver zinc-like structured and crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pbam space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are eight inequivalent Li sites. In the first Li site, Li is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Li and four equivalent Si atoms. Both Li–Li bond lengths are 2.95 Å. All Li–Si bond lengths are 2.57 Å. In the second Li site, Li is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight Li atoms. There are two shorter (2.36 Å) and six longer (2.65 Å) Li–Li bond lengths. In the third Li site, Li is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to five Li and three Si atoms. There are a spread of Li–Li bond distances ranging from 2.38–2.78 Å. There are one shorter (2.53 Å) and two longer (2.66 Å) Li–Si bond lengths. In the fourth Li site, Li is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to two Li and four Si atoms. The Li–Li bond length is 2.73 Å. There are a spread of Li–Si bond distances ranging from 2.70–2.91 Å. In the fifth Li site, Li is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to seven Li and three Si atoms. There are two shorter (2.70 Å) and twomore »
