Materials Data on LiMnPH2O5 by Materials Project

Abstract

LiMnPH2O5 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pmn2_1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Li1+ is bonded in an L-shaped geometry to two O2- atoms. There is one shorter (1.87 Å) and one longer (2.04 Å) Li–O bond length. Mn2+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form MnO6 octahedra that share corners with four equivalent MnO6 octahedra, corners with three equivalent PO4 tetrahedra, and an edgeedge with one PO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 68°. There are a spread of Mn–O bond distances ranging from 2.11–2.31 Å. P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share corners with three equivalent MnO6 octahedra and an edgeedge with one MnO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 47–51°. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.52–1.59 Å. H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one O2- atom. The H–O bond length is 0.99 Å. There are four inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Li1+ and one P5+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to one Mn2+ and one P5+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted water-like geometry to one Li1+, one Mn2+, and two equivalent H1+ atoms. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Mn2+ and one P5+ atom.
