title: Two cubic polymorphs of AlGeLi.
abstract: Aluminium germanium lithium, AlGeLi, crystallizes in two cubic dimorphs. The structure of the F-43m form, already inferred from powder data, has been confirmed by both powder and single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies. The second dimorph, not previously identified, adopts a disordered centrosymmetric structure with space group Fm-3m.
