Title: Materials Data on LiCoPO4 by Materials Project

Abstract

LiCoPO4 crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/c space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Li1+ sites. In the first Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded to five O2- atoms to form LiO5 trigonal bipyramids that share corners with three equivalent CoO4 tetrahedra and corners with five PO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Li–O bond distances ranging from 2.15–2.34 Å. In the second Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to three O2- atoms. There are a spread of Li–O bond distances ranging from 1.90–2.16 Å. There are two inequivalent Co2+ sites. In the first Co2+ site, Co2+ is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to five O2- atoms. There are a spread of Co–O bond distances ranging from 1.93–2.49 Å. In the second Co2+ site, Co2+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form CoO4 tetrahedra that share corners with four PO4 tetrahedra and corners with three equivalent LiO5 trigonal bipyramids. There are a spread of Co–O bond distances ranging from 1.97–2.01 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 CoO4 tetrahedra and corners with twomore » equivalent LiO5 trigonal bipyramids. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.54–1.57 Å. In the second P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share corners with three equivalent CoO4 tetrahedra and corners with three equivalent LiO5 trigonal bipyramids. There is one shorter (1.55 Å) and three longer (1.56 Å) P–O bond length. There are eight inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Li1+, two equivalent Co2+, and one P5+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to one Li1+, one Co2+, and one P5+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to one Li1+, one Co2+, and one P5+ atom. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded to two equivalent Li1+, one Co2+, and one P5+ atom to form distorted corner-sharing OLi2CoP tetrahedra. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Li1+, one Co2+, and one P5+ atom. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to one Li1+, one Co2+, and one P5+ atom. In the seventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to one Li1+, one Co2+, and one P5+ atom. In the eighth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Co2+ and one P5+ atom.« less
