Materials Data on LiCuPO4 by Materials Project
LiCuPO4 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pna2_1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Li1+ is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four O2- atoms. There are a spread of Li–O bond distances ranging from 1.92–2.44 Å. Cu2+ is bonded to five O2- atoms to form CuO5 trigonal bipyramids that share corners with three equivalent PO4 tetrahedra, corners with two equivalent CuO5 trigonal bipyramids, and an edgeedge with one PO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Cu–O bond distances ranging from 1.97–2.17 Å. P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share corners with three equivalent CuO5 trigonal bipyramids and an edgeedge with one CuO5 trigonal bipyramid. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.52–1.61 Å. There are four inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Li1+, one Cu2+, and one P5+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal non-coplanar geometry to one Li1+, one Cu2+, and one P5+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded to one Li1+, two equivalent Cu2+, and one P5+ atom to form distorted corner-sharing OLiCu2P trigonal pyramids. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to one Li1+, one Cu2+, and one P5+ atom.
