Materials Data on LiSiBO4 by Materials Project
LiBSiO4 crystallizes in the tetragonal I-4 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Li1+ is bonded to four equivalent O2- atoms to form distorted LiO4 tetrahedra that share corners with four equivalent BO4 tetrahedra and corners with four equivalent SiO4 tetrahedra. All Li–O bond lengths are 2.05 Å. B3+ is bonded to four equivalent O2- atoms to form BO4 tetrahedra that share corners with four equivalent LiO4 tetrahedra and corners with four equivalent SiO4 tetrahedra. All B–O bond lengths are 1.48 Å. Si4+ is bonded to four equivalent O2- atoms to form SiO4 tetrahedra that share corners with four equivalent LiO4 tetrahedra and corners with four equivalent BO4 tetrahedra. All Si–O bond lengths are 1.65 Å. O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to one Li1+, one B3+, and one Si4+ atom.
