Materials Data on LiCu4(PO4)3 by Materials Project
Abstract
LiCu4(PO4)3 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Cmc2_1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Li1+ is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to two equivalent O2- atoms. Both Li–O bond lengths are 2.15 Å. There are three inequivalent Cu2+ sites. In the first 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 1.91–2.64 Å. In the second Cu2+ site, Cu2+ is bonded to five O2- atoms to form CuO5 square pyramids that share corners with five PO4 tetrahedra and edges with two equivalent CuO5 square pyramids. There are a spread of Cu–O bond distances ranging from 2.05–2.11 Å. In the third 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 1.90–2.57 Å. There are three inequivalent P5+ sites. In the first P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share corners with four equivalent CuO5 square pyramids. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.51–1.62 Å. In the second P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra thatmore »
