Abstract
Lithium intercalated titanium disulphide and diselenide form a number of hydrated complexes. Two types of hydrate are found, one containing a monolayer and the other a bilayer of water molecules between the layers TiX2 (X=S, Se). By powder X-ray diffraction the crystal structures have been determined of Li(H2O)Ti(S,Se)2, Li(H2O)2Ti(S,Se)2 and refined parameters are given for the sulphur and selenium positions. The compounds Li0.4(H2O)Ti(S,Se)2 and Li0.4(H2O)2Ti(S,Se)2 are isostructural with these materials, with statistical occupation of the lithium sites.
