Materials Data on LiAuS by Materials Project
LiAuS crystallizes in the orthorhombic Fddd space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Li1+ is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Au1+ and four equivalent S2- atoms. Both Li–Au bond lengths are 3.03 Å. There are two shorter (2.56 Å) and two longer (2.58 Å) Li–S bond lengths. Au1+ is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Li1+ and two equivalent S2- atoms. Both Au–S bond lengths are 2.34 Å. S2- is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Li1+ and two equivalent Au1+ atoms.
