Abstract
The structure and properties of the Li-N system in the nitrogen-rich region have been systematically studied at 50 GPa. We propose four stable novel phases: P1-LiN7, Pm-LiN8, P1-LiN9 and P1-LiN10. The polynitrogen polymeric structure in the P1-LiN10 phase is discovered for the first time: the N atoms exist in the form of nitrogen chains, which contain N5 rings, and every two the N5 rings are connected by five N atoms. The analysis of electrical properties shows that the P1-LiN7, Pm-LiN8 and P1-LiN9 phases are semiconductor, while the P1-LiN10 phase is a superconductor with 0.23 K at 50 GPa. The N atoms in the P1-LiN10 phase all exist in the sp3 hybrid form. The high energy density, and excellent detonation pressure, detonation velocity performance of the P1-LiN10 phase make it good candidate for high energy density materials.
期刊介绍:
The journal provides an international medium for the publication of theoretical and experimental studies and reviews related to the electronic, electrochemical, ionic, magnetic, optical, and biosensing properties of solid state materials in bulk, thin film and particulate forms. Papers dealing with synthesis, processing, characterization, structure, physical properties and computational aspects of nano-crystalline, crystalline, amorphous and glassy forms of ceramics, semiconductors, layered insertion compounds, low-dimensional compounds and systems, fast-ion conductors, polymers and dielectrics are viewed as suitable for publication. Articles focused on nano-structured aspects of these advanced solid-state materials will also be considered suitable.
