Materials Data on Li3InN2 by Materials Project
Li3InN2 crystallizes in the cubic Ia-3 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Li1+ is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four N3- atoms. There are a spread of Li–N bond distances ranging from 2.07–2.49 Å. In3+ is bonded to four N3- atoms to form corner-sharing InN4 tetrahedra. There are one shorter (2.19 Å) and three longer (2.21 Å) In–N bond lengths. There are two inequivalent N3- sites. In the first N3- site, N3- is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to six equivalent Li1+ and two equivalent In3+ atoms. In the second N3- site, N3- is bonded in a distorted body-centered cubic geometry to six equivalent Li1+ and two equivalent In3+ atoms.
