Ag1Ga2Li1
Ag1Ga2Li1 is a ternary intermetallic compound with semimetallic electronic properties that is currently being evaluated for its structural stability.
About Ag1Ga2Li1
Ag1Ga2Li1 is a ternary intermetallic compound composed of silver, gallium, and lithium. Its electronic character is defined as near-zero-gap, placing it in the category of semimetallic materials that exhibit unique conductive properties distinct from traditional insulators or metals.
Due to its position above the thermodynamic hull, this material is considered metastable, suggesting that its synthesis and long-term stability require specific experimental conditions. It remains a subject of interest in structural databases for those exploring complex ternary phase spaces.
Key Properties
Cross-validated computational properties for Ag1Ga2Li1, aggregated across 2 databases.
Band GapEnergy needed to move an electron from the valence band to the conduction band. Lower or zero values tend to behave more metallic; larger gaps are more insulating or semiconducting.
Energy Above HullThermodynamic distance from the most stable set of competing phases. 0 eV/atom is on the convex hull; small positive values may still be experimentally accessible.
