Li diffusion and transport parameters of binary lithium carbide Li2C2 were complementarily investigated by Li-7 (nuclear magnetic resonance) NMR and impedance spectroscopy. Long-range Li diffusion parameters were measured by using mixing-time-dependent and temperature-variable stimulated echo NMR spectroscopy. The method is sensitive to ultra-slow Li hopping processes which were probed from an atomic-scale point of view. Two-time phase correlation functions S-2 obtained can be parameterized by stretched exponentials only. The corresponding echo decay rates tau(-1), which were recorded at a resonance frequency of e.g. 155.5 MHz, show Arrhenius behaviour revealing an activation energy of 0.80(2) eV. This value is in very good agreement with that deduced from dc conductivity measurements (0.79(2) eV) probing Li transport processes on a macroscopic length scale. The comparison of impedance data with the measured NMR echo decay functions showed that both methods reflect diffusion processes being characterized by very similar motional correlation functions.
