ABSTRACT: Phosphide-based materials have been investigated as promising candidates for solid electrolytes, among which the recently reported Li9AlP4 displays an ionic conductivity of 3 mS cm-1. While the phases Li-Al-P and Li-Ga-P have already been investigated, no ternary indium-based phosphide has been reported up to now. Here, we describe the synthesis and characterization of the first lithium phosphidoindate Li3InP2, which is easily accessible via ball milling of the elements and subsequent annealing. Li3InP2 crystallizes in the tetragonal space group I41/acd with lattice parameters of a = 12.0007(2) and c = 23.917(5) Å, featuring a supertetrahedral polyanionic framework of
