Title: Materials Data on LiBeB by Materials Project

Abstract

LiBeB crystallizes in the trigonal P3m1 space group. The structure is two-dimensional and consists of two lithium molecules; two Be2B sheets oriented in the (0, 0, 1) direction; and one LiB sheet oriented in the (0, 0, 1) direction. In each Be2B sheet, there are two inequivalent Be2+ sites. In the first Be2+ site, Be2+ is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three equivalent B3- atoms. All Be–B bond lengths are 1.91 Å. In the second Be2+ site, Be2+ is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to three equivalent B3- atoms. All Be–B bond lengths are 1.94 Å. B3- is bonded in a distorted hexagonal planar geometry to six Be2+ atoms. In the LiB sheet, there are two inequivalent Li1+ sites. In the first Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six B3- atoms. All Li–B bond lengths are 2.37 Å. In the second Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six B3- atoms. All Li–B bond lengths are 2.16 Å. There are two inequivalent B3- sites. In the first B3- site, B3- is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to six Li1+ and three equivalent B3- atoms. All B–B bond lengths aremore » 1.89 Å. In the second B3- site, B3- is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to six Li1+ and three equivalent B3- atoms.« less
