✦ Synopsis
The binary face-centered cubic Zintl phase LiIn (NaTl-type, B32 in the classification of the ''Strukturberichte'') undergoes a tetragonal distortion from Fd % 3m into I4 1 =amd. This phase transition is reversible and ''translationengleich''. The transition temperature of 170(10) K was determined based on X-ray and neutron powder diffraction data.
