Title: Materials Data on Li7Nb12O24 by Materials Project

Abstract

Li7Nb12O24 crystallizes in the triclinic P-1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are four inequivalent Li1+ sites. In the first Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form LiO6 octahedra that share corners with six NbO6 pentagonal pyramids, edges with three LiO6 octahedra, and edges with six NbO6 pentagonal pyramids. There are a spread of Li–O bond distances ranging from 2.17–2.20 Å. In the second Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form LiO6 octahedra that share corners with six NbO6 pentagonal pyramids, edges with two LiO6 octahedra, and edges with six NbO6 pentagonal pyramids. There are a spread of Li–O bond distances ranging from 2.17–2.20 Å. In the third Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form LiO6 octahedra that share corners with six NbO6 pentagonal pyramids, edges with two equivalent LiO6 octahedra, and edges with six NbO6 pentagonal pyramids. There are two shorter (2.17 Å) and four longer (2.18 Å) Li–O bond lengths. In the fourth Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form LiO6 octahedra that share corners with six NbO6 pentagonal pyramids, edges with three LiO6 octahedra, and edges with six NbO6 pentagonalmore » pyramids.
