Ag2La1Na1
Ag2La1Na1 is an unstable, semimetallic ternary compound composed of silver, lanthanum, and sodium.
About Ag2La1Na1
Ag2La1Na1 is a complex ternary compound composed of silver, lanthanum, and sodium. Its electronic character is defined as near-zero-gap, placing it in the semimetallic regime where conduction properties are highly sensitive to structural configuration. The material exhibits thermodynamic instability, as it resides above the hull in energy landscapes. Despite this, it has been the subject of significant structural investigation, with numerous reported configurations recorded across materials databases.
Key Properties
Cross-validated computational properties for Ag2La1Na1, 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.
