Title: Materials Data on Li2CuPO4 by Materials Project

Abstract

Li2CuPO4 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Li1+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form LiO4 tetrahedra that share corners with two equivalent LiO4 tetrahedra, corners with four equivalent CuO4 tetrahedra, corners with four equivalent PO4 tetrahedra, and an edgeedge with one LiO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Li–O bond distances ranging from 1.94–2.01 Å. Cu1+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form CuO4 tetrahedra that share corners with four equivalent PO4 tetrahedra and corners with eight equivalent LiO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Cu–O bond distances ranging from 2.09–2.26 Å. P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share corners with four equivalent CuO4 tetrahedra and corners with eight equivalent LiO4 tetrahedra. There is one shorter (1.55 Å) and three longer (1.57 Å) P–O bond length. There are three inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded to two equivalent Li1+, one Cu1+, and one P5+ atom to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing OLi2CuP tetrahedra. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded to two equivalent Li1+, one Cu1+, and one P5+ atom to form distorted corner-sharing OLi2CuP trigonal pyramids.more » In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded to two equivalent Li1+, one Cu1+, and one P5+ atom to form distorted corner-sharing OLi2CuP trigonal pyramids.« less
