Abstract
Ge(Li) crystallizes in the tetragonal I4_1/amd space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are five inequivalent Li sites. In the first Li site, Li is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to four Li and eight Ge atoms. All Li–Li bond lengths are 2.87 Å. There are four shorter (2.72 Å) and four longer (2.88 Å) Li–Ge bond lengths. In the second Li site, Li is bonded to four Li and eight Ge atoms to form distorted LiLi4Ge8 cuboctahedra that share corners with four equivalent LiLi4Ge8 cuboctahedra, edges with eight LiLi4Ge8 cuboctahedra, edges with eight equivalent GeLi8Ge4 cuboctahedra, faces with two equivalent GeLi8Ge4 cuboctahedra, and faces with six equivalent LiLi4Ge8 cuboctahedra. Both Li–Li bond lengths are 2.70 Å. There are a spread of Li–Ge bond distances ranging from 2.86–2.89 Å. In the third Li site, Li is bonded to four Li and eight Ge atoms to form distorted LiLi4Ge8 cuboctahedra that share corners with four equivalent LiLi4Ge8 cuboctahedra, edges with eight equivalent LiLi4Ge8 cuboctahedra, edges with eight equivalent GeLi8Ge4 cuboctahedra, faces with two equivalent GeLi8Ge4 cuboctahedra, and faces with six LiLi4Ge8 cuboctahedra. There are two shorter (2.70 Å) and two longer (2.87 Å) Li–Li bond lengths. There are a spread ofmore »
