Abstract

The electrical conductivities of complex hydrides Li₂(BH ₄)(NH₂) and Li₄(BH₄)(NH ₂)₃ consisting of (BH₄)^- and (NH₂)^- anions are investigated focusing on their low melting temperatures (365 K for Li₂(BH₄)(NH₂) and 490K for Li₄(BH₄)(NH₂)₃). The two hydrides show lithium fast-ion conductivities of about 1 × 10 ^-4 S·cm^-1 at room temperature. After melting, the total ion conductivities OfLi2(BH4)(NH2) and Li₄ (BH ₄)(NH₂)₃ reach 6 × 10^-2 S·cm^-1 (378 K) and 2 x 10^-1 S·cm ^-1 (513 K), respectively. The crystal structure and local atomistic structures closely correlated with the lithium ion conduction before and after melting are also discussed.
