Key Properties
Cross-validated computational properties for LiV2O5, aggregated across 3 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.
StabilityA plain-language summary of the best reported energy-above-hull result. It reflects whether the lowest-energy structure is on, near, or far from the stability hull.

How It Compares
Within the lithium oxides class.
Within the diverse class of lithium oxides, LiV2O5 occupies a distinct niche compared to well-established cathode materials like LiCoO2 or LiMn2O4. While those oxides are widely utilized for their robust performance in commercial batteries, LiV2O5 offers a different structural framework and electronic profile, sharing more in common with the complex vanadium-based oxide LiV3O8 in terms of its potential for multi-valent ion intercalation and flexible lattice dynamics.
