Materials Data on Li2MgZn by Materials Project

Abstract

Li2MgZn crystallizes in the cubic F-43m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Li sites. In the first Li site, Li is bonded to four equivalent Li and four equivalent Zn atoms to form distorted edge-sharing LiLi4Zn4 tetrahedra. All Li–Li bond lengths are 2.84 Å. All Li–Zn bond lengths are 2.84 Å. In the second Li site, Li is bonded in a distorted body-centered cubic geometry to four equivalent Li and four equivalent Mg atoms. All Li–Mg bond lengths are 2.84 Å. Mg is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to four equivalent Li and four equivalent Zn atoms. All Mg–Zn bond lengths are 2.84 Å. Zn is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to four equivalent Li and four equivalent Mg atoms.
