Abstract:Polycrystalline LiMo8O10 was prepared
in
a sealed Mo crucible at 1380 °C for 48 h using the conventional
high-temperature solid-state method. The polar tetragonal crystal
structure (space group I41
md) is confirmed based on the Rietveld refinement of powder neutron
diffraction and 7Li/6Li solid-state NMR. The
crystal structure features infinite chains of Mo4O5 (i.e., Mo2Mo4/2O6/2O6/3) as a repeat unit containing edge-sharing Mo6 octahedra with strong Mo–Mo metal bonding along the chain.
