Shown are Be-Li ordered alloys predicted to be stable. a, Stability range of the four stable LixBe1-x alloys. b, LiBe4 at 80 GPa (space group R-3m). c, LiBe2 at 83 GPa (P6/mmm). d, LiBe at 82 GPa (P21/m). e, Li3Be at 80 GPa (C2/m). Detailed structural information on these important phases is given in Supplementary Information.
