Fast Li-Ion-Conducting Garnet-Related Li_7-3x Fe _x La₃Zr₂O₁₂ with Uncommon I43d Structure.

ABSTRACT: Fast Li-ion-conducting Li oxide garnets receive a great deal of attention as they are suitable candidates for solid-state Li electrolytes. It was recently shown that Ga-stabilized Li₇La₃Zr₂O₁₂ crystallizes in the acentric cubic space group I4̅3d. This structure can be derived by a symmetry reduction of the garnet-type Ia3̅d structure, which is the most commonly found space group of Li oxide garnets and garnets in general. In this study, single-crystal X-ray diffraction confirms the presence of space group I4̅3d also for Li_7-3x Fe _x La₃Zr₂O₁₂. The crystal structure was characterized by X-ray powder diffraction, single-crystal X-ray diffra
