In the first Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form distorted LiO4 tetrahedra that share corners with four PO4 tetrahedra and an edgeedge with one CoO6 octahedra. There are a spread of Li–O bond distances ranging from 1.88–2.12 Å. In the second Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four O2- atoms. There are a spread of Li–O bond distances ranging from 1.86–2.10 Å. There are two inequivalent Co3+ sites.
