Materials Data on Li2Mg by Materials Project
Abstract
MgLi2 crystallizes in the monoclinic C2/m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Li sites. In the first Li site, Li is bonded to seven Li and five equivalent Mg atoms to form distorted LiLi7Mg5 cuboctahedra that share corners with six equivalent MgLi9Mg3 cuboctahedra, corners with twelve LiLi7Mg5 cuboctahedra, edges with five equivalent MgLi9Mg3 cuboctahedra, edges with thirteen LiLi8Mg4 cuboctahedra, faces with eight equivalent MgLi9Mg3 cuboctahedra, and faces with twelve LiLi7Mg5 cuboctahedra. There are a spread of Li–Li bond distances ranging from 3.04–3.17 Å. There are a spread of Li–Mg bond distances ranging from 3.03–3.08 Å. In the second Li site, Li is bonded to eight Li and four equivalent Mg atoms to form distorted LiLi8Mg4 cuboctahedra that share corners with six equivalent MgLi9Mg3 cuboctahedra, corners with twelve LiLi8Mg4 cuboctahedra, edges with nine LiLi7Mg5 cuboctahedra, edges with nine equivalent MgLi9Mg3 cuboctahedra, faces with six equivalent MgLi9Mg3 cuboctahedra, and faces with fourteen LiLi8Mg4 cuboctahedra. There are a spread of Li–Li bond distances ranging from 3.04–3.06 Å. There are two shorter (3.06 Å) and two longer (3.11 Å) Li–Mg bond lengths. Mg is bonded to nine Li and three equivalent Mg atoms to form distorted MgLi9Mg3 cuboctahedra that sharemore »
