Title: Materials Data on LiNiS2 by Materials Project

Abstract

LiNiS2 is Caswellsilverite-like structured and crystallizes in the triclinic P1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Li1+ sites. In the first Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded to six S2- atoms to form LiS6 octahedra that share corners with twelve NiS6 octahedra, edges with six LiS6 octahedra, and faces with two equivalent NiS6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 47–49°. There are a spread of Li–S bond distances ranging from 2.57–2.61 Å. In the second Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded to six S2- atoms to form LiS6 octahedra that share corners with twelve NiS6 octahedra, edges with six LiS6 octahedra, and faces with two equivalent NiS6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 47–50°. There are a spread of Li–S bond distances ranging from 2.55–2.62 Å. There are two inequivalent Ni3+ sites. In the first Ni3+ site, Ni3+ is bonded to six S2- atoms to form NiS6 octahedra that share corners with twelve LiS6 octahedra, edges with six NiS6 octahedra, and faces with two equivalent LiS6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 47–49°. There are three shorter (2.32 Å) and three longer (2.33 Å) Ni–S bond lengths. In the second Ni3+ site,more » Ni3+ is bonded to six S2- atoms to form NiS6 octahedra that share corners with twelve LiS6 octahedra, edges with six NiS6 octahedra, and faces with two equivalent LiS6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 47–50°. There are four shorter (2.32 Å) and two longer (2.33 Å) Ni–S bond lengths. There are four inequivalent S2- sites. In the first S2- site, S2- is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to three Li1+ and three Ni3+ atoms. In the second S2- site, S2- is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to three Li1+ and three Ni3+ atoms. In the third S2- site, S2- is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to three Li1+ and three Ni3+ atoms. In the fourth S2- site, S2- is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to three Li1+ and three Ni3+ atoms.« less
