Abstract
The crystal structure of Li3.17(P0.69Ge0.24Mo0.07)O4, which was synthesized by the flux method under the action of an electric field with a potential difference of 0.8 V, was studied by X-ray diffraction on a Nonius Kappa CCD diffractometer (MoK α radiation, λ = 0.71073 Å, R = 0.0137). The crystal structure is based on a tetrahedral framework typical of γ-Li3PO4. The framework of the new compound is formed by (P,Ge,Mo)O4 and LiO4 tetrahedra. The positions of additional Li atoms in the structure of Li3.17(P0.69Ge0.24Mo0.07)O4 are found to be different from those in the structure of Li3.31(P0.69Ge0.31)O4, which is synthesized in the absence of an electric field and also belongs to the γ-Li3PO4 structure type.
