Title: Materials Data on LiCu4(PO4)3 by Materials Project

Abstract

LiCu4(PO4)3 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Li1+ is bonded to five O2- atoms to form LiO5 trigonal bipyramids that share corners with five PO4 tetrahedra and edges with two equivalent LiO5 trigonal bipyramids. There are a spread of Li–O bond distances ranging from 1.98–2.14 Å. There are two inequivalent Cu2+ sites. In the first Cu2+ site, Cu2+ is bonded in a rectangular see-saw-like geometry to four O2- atoms. There are a spread of Cu–O bond distances ranging from 1.90–1.99 Å. In the second Cu2+ site, Cu2+ is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six O2- atoms. There are a spread of Cu–O bond distances ranging from 1.94–2.55 Å. There are two inequivalent P5+ sites. In the first P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share a cornercorner with one LiO5 trigonal bipyramid. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.53–1.60 Å. In the second P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share corners with two equivalent LiO5 trigonal bipyramids. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.53–1.60 Å. There are seven inequivalent O2- sites.more » In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to two Cu2+ and one P5+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to one Cu2+ and one P5+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to one Li1+, two equivalent Cu2+, and one P5+ atom. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to two Cu2+ and one P5+ atom. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to two equivalent Cu2+ and one P5+ atom. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Li1+, one Cu2+, and one P5+ atom. In the seventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to two equivalent Cu2+ and one P5+ atom.« less
