Solution of the heavily stacking faulted crystal structure of the honeycomb iridate H3LiIr2O6

Abstract: A powder sample of pure H 3 LiIr 2 O 6 was synthesized from α-Li 2 IrO 3 powder by a soft chemical replacement of Li + with H + . The crystal structure of H 3 LiIr 2 O 6 consists of sheets of edge sharing LiO 6 -and IrO 6 -octahedra forming a honeycomb network with layers stacked in a monoclinic distorted HCrO 2 type pattern. Heavy stacking faulting of the sheets is indicated by anisotropic peak broadening in the X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD) pattern. The ideal, faultless crystal structure was obtained by a … Show more

“…44 For the optimization of the microstructures of Ag 3 LiIr 2 O 6 and Ag 3 LiRu 2 O 6 the monoclinic unit cells of the initial faultless structure models were transformed into P1-pseudo-orthorhombic cells as described for H 3 LiIr 2 O 6 . 9 During each simulation 100 supercells with 200 layers each were simulated and averaged. The simulated pattern was refined against the measured pattern while keeping all parameters fixed except the scaling factor.…”

“…The microstructural properties of Ag 3 LiIr 2 O 6 and Ag 3 LiRu 2 O 6 are similar to H 3 LiIr 2 O 6 . 9 This may point to the fact that the presence of planar defects is an intrinsic property of this kind of layered honeycomb structures.…”
