Fig. 2

Ternary diagram of a Li+ electrical mobility in 10−8 m2 V−1 s−1, b Li+ number density in ions per nm3, c GK conductivity in S cm−1, and d Haven ratio = σNE/σGK for salts containing LiF, LiCl, and/or LiI at 1200 K. σNE was calculated using the diffusion coefficients that were determined by means of the velocity autocorrelation function (vac). A higher number of the Haven ratio indicates more ion cross-correlations (it does not necessarily indicate more ion association)6. Calculated points are shown as red diamonds; the contour lines are linearly interpolated.
