Materials Data on LiVTeO5 by Materials Project

Abstract

LiVTeO5 crystallizes in the orthorhombic P2_12_12_1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Li1+ is bonded in a distorted T-shaped geometry to three O2- atoms. There are a spread of Li–O bond distances ranging from 1.96–2.18 Å. V5+ is bonded in a tetrahedral geometry to four O2- atoms. There are a spread of V–O bond distances ranging from 1.68–1.87 Å. Te4+ is bonded in an L-shaped geometry to two O2- atoms. There is one shorter (1.97 Å) and one longer (2.00 Å) Te–O bond length. There are five inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to one Te4+ and one O2- atom. The O–O bond length is 1.50 Å. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Li1+ and one V5+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one V5+ and one O2- atom. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal non-coplanar geometry to one Li1+, one V5+, and one Te4+ atom. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to one Li1+ and one V5+ atom.
