Compounds crystallizing in the structure of NaZr2(PO4)3 (NZP) are considered as promising materials for solid state electrolytes in Li-ion batteries. Using density functional theory (DFT), a systematic computational screening of 18 NZP compounds, namely LiX2(LO4)3 with X = Ti, V, Fe, Zr, Nb, Ru, Hf, Ta, Os, and L = P, Mn is performed with respect to their activation energies for vacancy-mediated Li migration. It is shown how the different ionic radii of the cationic substitutions influence structural characteristics such as the octahedron volumes around Li ions on the initial and transition state sites, which affect the activation energies (”composition-structure-property”-relationships). The prevalent assumption that structural bottlenecks formed by triangularly arranged oxygen atoms at a certain location along the migration path determine the energy barriers for Li migration is not supported by the DFT results. Instead, the ionic neighborhood of the migrating ion in the initial and in the transition state need to be taken into consideration to relate the structure to the activation energies. This conclusion applies to Na containing NZP compounds as well.
