description: Li3La5Ti6Nb2O26 crystallizes in the monoclinic P2 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are three inequivalent Li1+ sites. In the first Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four O2- atoms. There are two shorter (1.99 Å) and two longer (2.09 Å) Li–O bond lengths. In the second Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four O2- atoms. There are two shorter (2.00 Å) and two longer (2.07 Å) Li–O bond lengths. In the third Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four O2- atoms. There is two shorter (1.94 Å) and two longer (1.97 Å) Li–O bond length. There are three inequivalent La3+ sites. In the first La3+ site, La3+ is bonded to twelve O2- atoms to form LaO12 cuboctahedra that share corners with four equivalent LaO12 cuboctahedra, faces with five LaO12 cuboctahedra, and faces with four TiO6 octahedra. There are a spread of La–O bond distances ranging from 2.62–2.79 Å. In the second La3+ site, La3+ is bonded to twelve O2- atoms to form LaO12 cuboctahedra that share corners with eight LaO12 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent LaO12 cuboctahedra, and faces with four TiO6 octahedra.

In the third La3+ site, La3+ is bonded to twelve O2- atoms to form LaO12 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve LaO12 cuboctahedra, faces with two equivalent LaO12 cuboctahedra, and faces with eight TiO6 octahedra. There are a spread of La–O bond distances ranging from 2.76–2.80 Å. There are three inequivalent Ti4+ sites. In the first Ti4+ site, Ti4+ is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six O2- atoms. There are a spread of Ti–O bond distances ranging from 1.75–2.26 Å. In the second Ti4+ site, Ti4+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form TiO6 octahedra that share corners with five TiO6 octahedra and faces with six LaO12 cuboctahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 0–8°. There is two shorter (1.95 Å) and four longer (1.96 Å) Ti–O bond length. In the third Ti4+ site, Ti4+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form TiO6 octahedra that share corners with five TiO6 octahedra and faces with six LaO12 cuboctahedra.
