Abstract
First-principles study of LiGa Li2S, GaS, Ga2S3 and LiGaS2 thermodynamic functions in Li-Ga-S system was performed by using plane-wave pseudopotential method. All possible chemical reactions were analyzed. It was found that the goal product LiGaS2 comes from four chemical reactions. Free energy change of direct synthesis from elements is high. Free energy change of synthesis from Li2S and Ga2S3 decreases with increasing temperature, but Ga2S3 is difficult to be obtained. These two reactions can not occur in this system. The remaining reactions by LiGa and S method and Li2S and GaS method can occur due to their low free energy changes. Free energy changes generating Li2S, GaS and LiGa are low.
