Materials Data on CsLiN2 by Materials Project
LiCsN2 is I4/mcm-derived structured and crystallizes in the monoclinic C2/c space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Cs1+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight equivalent N1- atoms. There are a spread of Cs–N bond distances ranging from 3.22–3.57 Å. Li1+ is bonded to four equivalent N1- atoms to form distorted edge-sharing LiN4 tetrahedra. There are two shorter (2.01 Å) and two longer (2.05 Å) Li–N bond lengths. N1- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Cs1+ and two equivalent Li1+ atoms.
