LiBi{sub 3}S{sub 5}—A lithium bismuth sulfide with strong cation disorder

Among chalcogenide semiconductors for thermoelectric applications, alkali-metal bismuth compounds occur in many complex compositions favorable for high performance. Although LiBi{sub 3}S{sub 5} had been announced in 1977, the potential 1D lithium-ion conductor has hitherto eluded selective synthesis and structure determination. In this study, we present a solid-state route to phase-pure LiBi{sub 3}S{sub 5} powder starting from LiBiS{sub 2} and Bi{sub 2}S{sub 3}. Neutron diffractograms and lithium NMR spectra reveal its crystal structure to be a cation-disordered variety of the AgBi{sub 3}S{sub 5} type (synthetic pavonite; monoclinic, C2/m). Topological analyses and lithium NMR relaxometry suggest that correlated lithium-ion diffusion with activation energies up to 0.66(2) eV occurs along the channels in b direction including tetrahedral voids. Because of cation disorder, immobile bismuth(III) ions clog these pathways, making LiBi{sub 3}S{sub 5} a moderate to poor ionic conductor. The synthesis route reported is nonetheless promising for new lithium bismuth sulfides with, possibly ordered, structure types of the pavonite homologous series. - Graphical abstract: Phase-pure LiBi{sub 3}S{sub 5} has been synthesized and shown to crystallize in cation-disordered variety of the AgBi{sub 3}S{sub 5} type (synthetic pavonite, C2/m) using neutron diffractometry. Topological analyses and NMR relaxometry suggest that immobile Bi{sup 3+} ions clog migration channels along b, making the material a poor lithium conductor. Display Omitted - Highlights: • Phase-pure LiBi{sub 3}S{sub 5} has been synthesized using a promising solid-state route. • LiBi{sub 3}S{sub 5} crystallizes in a cation-disordered variant of the AgBi{sub 3}S{sub 5} type. • Topological analyses suggest lithium diffusion in channels along b. • NMR relaxometry finds activation energies of diffusion as high as 0.66(2) eV. • Because of disorder, LiBi{sub 3}S{sub 5} is a moderate to poor lithium-ion conductor.

Superconductivity on a Bi Square Net in LiBi

We present the crystallographic analysis, superconducting characterization and theoretical modeling of LiBi, that contains the lightest and the heaviest nonradioactive metal. The compound crystallizes in a tetragonal (CuAu-type) crystal structure with Bi square nets separated by Li planes (parameters a = 3.3636(1) Å and c = 4.2459(2) Å, c/a = 1.26). Superconducting state was studied in detail by magnetic susceptibility and heat capacity measurements. The results reveal that LiBi is a moderately coupled type-I superconductor (λ e-p = 0.66) with T c = 2.48 K and a thermodynamic critical field H c (0) = 157 Oe. Theoretical studies show that bismuth square net is responsible for superconductivity in this compound, but the coupling between the Li planes and Bi planes makes a significant contribution to the superconductivity.
