The main approach for exploring metastable materials is via trial-and-error synthesis, and there is limited understanding of how metastable materials are kinetically stabilized. In this study, a metastable phase superionic conductor, β-Li<sub>3</sub> YCl<sub>6</sub> , is discovered through in situ X-ray diffraction after heating a mixture of LiCl and YCl<sub>3</sub> powders. While Cl<sup>-</sup> arrangement is represented as a hexagonal close packed structure in both metastable β-Li<sub>3</sub> ...[more]
