“…Nevertheless, as we will demonstrate below, using first-principles calculations, the model with mixed occupation is the more likely choice due to electronic structure considerations. Additionally, we must also note that mutual substitutions between Li and some p-block elements, such as Ga, In, and Sn, have been observed frequently in various types of intermetallic compounds, including several bismuthides (Fedorchuk et al, 2011;Smetana et al, 2010;Ovchinnikov & Bobev, 2019b,c;You & Bobev, 2010;Sreeraj et al, 2005;Ojwang & Bobev, 2018). The overall occupation factor for the discussed site was set to 1, resulting in the refined In/Li ratio of 0.577 (8):0.423.…”
