The Materials Project

LiYF4 is Zircon-like structured and crystallizes in the monoclinic C2/c space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Li1+ is bonded in a distorted tetrahedral geometry to four F1- atoms. There is two shorter (1.93 Å) and two longer (1.94 Å) Li–F bond length. Y3+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight F1- atoms. There are four shorter (2.27 Å) and four longer (2.33 Å) Y–F bond lengths. There are two inequivalent F1- sites. In the first F1- site, F1- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to one Li1+ and two equivalent Y3+ atoms. In the second F1- site, F1- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to one Li1+ and two equivalent Y3+ atoms.
