Materials Data on BaLiSb by Materials Project
BaLiSb crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3/mmc space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Li1+ is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three equivalent Sb3- atoms. All Li–Sb bond lengths are 2.85 Å. Ba2+ is bonded to six equivalent Sb3- atoms to form a mixture of face, edge, and corner-sharing BaSb6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 46°. All Ba–Sb bond lengths are 3.67 Å. Sb3- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to three equivalent Li1+ and six equivalent Ba2+ atoms.
