LiMgP is half-Heusler structured and crystallizes in the cubic F-43m space group. Li(1) is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to four equivalent Mg(1) and four equivalent P(1) atoms. Mg(1) is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Li(1) and six equivalent P(1) atoms. P(1) is bonded to four equivalent Li(1) and six equivalent Mg(1) atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner and face-sharing PLi4Mg6 tetrahedra.
