Li7La3Zr2O12 garnet (LLZO) belongs to the most promising solid electrolytes for the development of solid-state Li batteries. The stability of LLZO upon exposure to air is still a matter of discussion. Therefore, we performed a comprehensive study on the aging behavior of Al-stabilized LLZO (space group (SG) Ia3¯d) and Ga-stabilized LLZO (SG I4¯3d) involving 98 powder and 51 single-crystal X-ray diffraction measurements. A Li+/H+ exchange starts immediately on exposure to air, whereby the exchange is more pronounced in samples with smaller particle/single-crystal diameter. A slight displacement of Li from interstitial Li2 (96h) toward the regular tetrahedral Li1 (24d) sites occurs in Al-stabilized LLZO. In addition, site occupancy at the 96h site decreases as Li+ is exchanged by H+. More extensive hydration during a mild hydrothermal treatment of samples at 90 °C induces a structural phase transition in Al-LLZO to SG I4¯3d with a splitting of the 24d site into two independent tetrahedral sites (i.e., 12a and 12b), whereby Al3+ solely occupies the 12a site. Li+ is preferably removed from the interstitial 48e site (equivalent to 96h). Analogous effects are observed in Ga-stabilized LLZO, which has SG I4¯3d in the pristine state.
