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

Abstract

LiNb(PO3)4 crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/c space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Li1+ is bonded in a distorted L-shaped geometry to two equivalent O2- atoms. There is one shorter (1.89 Å) and one longer (2.05 Å) Li–O bond length. Nb3+ is bonded to seven O2- atoms to form NbO7 pentagonal bipyramids that share corners with seven PO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Nb–O bond distances ranging from 2.17–2.29 Å. There are four 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 1.49–1.63 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 are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.48–1.62 Å. In the third P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share a cornercorner with one NbO7 pentagonal bipyramid and corners with two PO4 tetrahedra. There is two shorter (1.50 Å) andmore » two longer (1.61 Å) P–O bond length. In the fourth 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. There are twelve inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to two P5+ atoms. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to one Nb3+ and one P5+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to one Nb3+ and one P5+ atom. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to one Nb3+ and one P5+ atom. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to two equivalent Li1+ and one P5+ atom. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to two P5+ atoms. In the seventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to two P5+ atoms. In the eighth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to one Nb3+ and one P5+ atom. In the ninth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to one Nb3+ and one P5+ atom. In the tenth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to two P5+ atoms. In the eleventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to one Nb3+ and one P5+ atom. In the twelfth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted linear geometry to one Nb3+ and one P5+ atom.« less
