摘要
The energy landscapes of several compositions in the system LixNa6-xN2 (x = 0, 1,...,6) are explored. The best structure candidates are analyzed using quantum mechanical methods, and their enthalpies of formation are calculated. We find that among the ternary compounds the structure candidates for the compositions x = 2 and 4 are the most stable ones, with the optimal structures being ternary variations of the Li3N-type structure. However, at high pressures, phase transitions from Li3N- to Li3Bi-related structures should occur for all compositions x, including Li3N itself.
