[7a-A202-8] First Principles Analysis of Structural Transformation between \alpha’ and \alpha phases for LiZr2(PO4)3 Solid State Electrolytes with NASICON Type
Keywords:solid state electrolyte with NASICON type, phase transition, First principles calculations
Previously, we reported our theoretical analysis of Li diffusion in LiZr2(PO4)3 with NASICON type using the first-principles calculations. LZPO shows the phase transition of the crystal structutre at 330K. At lower temperature, LZPO takes triclinic structure with C-1 symmetry (alpha' phase), whereas at higher temperature it takes rhombohedral structure with R3C symmetry (alpha phase). We study the phase transition between alpha' and alpha phases of LZPO using the phonon vibration analysis based on the force field derived by the first principles calculations. We also report the isotope effects of Li on the transion temperature.
