Derivatives of rare-earth metal(III) ortho-thiophosphates(V) containing small monovalent cations

Abstract

This work focusses on the synthesis and characterization of rare-earth metal (III) ortho-thiophosphates(V) containing the small monovalent cations, lithium(I) and silver(I). The discovered structures and compounds were studied for their intriguing crystallography through X-ray analysis and further analytical methods as well as for their possibility to serve as potential solid state ion-conductors. The work was carried out from 2020 to 2023.
