Materials Data on LiCuTeO4 by Materials Project
LiCuTeO4 is Hausmannite-derived structured and crystallizes in the tetragonal P4_322 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Li1+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form distorted LiO6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent CuO4 tetrahedra, edges with two equivalent LiO6 octahedra, and edges with four equivalent TeO6 octahedra. There are a spread of Li–O bond distances ranging from 2.00–2.38 Å. Cu1+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form CuO4 tetrahedra that share corners with six equivalent LiO6 octahedra and corners with six equivalent TeO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 53–64°. There are two shorter (1.99 Å) and two longer (2.07 Å) Cu–O bond lengths. Te6+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form TeO6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent CuO4 tetrahedra, edges with two equivalent TeO6 octahedra, and edges with four equivalent LiO6 octahedra. There are a spread of Te–O bond distances ranging from 1.91–2.14 Å. There are two inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded to two equivalent Li1+, one Cu1+, and one Te6+ atom to form a mixture of distorted corner and edge-sharing OLi2CuTe tetrahedra. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted rectangular see-saw-like geometry to one Li1+, one Cu1+, and two equivalent Te6+ atoms.
