A Binary phase diagram of the lithium magnesium system, redrawn from ref. 57 with labelled phase regions of liquid (L), the lithium rich body centred cubic phase (β), the magnesium rich hexagonal close packed phase (α) and the two-phase region (α + β). The investigated compositions are marked with dotted lines in 5% blue, 10% orange, 20% yellow. B Lattice parameter measured by X-ray diffraction and open circuit voltage (OCV) measured against lithium metal. C–E Representative EBSD maps of 5, 10 and 20 atomic percent alloys respectively, outlined in the respective colours marked on the phase diagram.
