title: Materials Data on Li3Fe2CoO6 by Materials Project

description: Li3Fe2CoO6 is alpha Po-derived structured and crystallizes in the triclinic P1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are three inequivalent Li1+ sites. In the first Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form LiO6 octahedra that share a cornercorner with one CoO6 octahedra, corners with five FeO6 octahedra, edges with two equivalent CoO6 octahedra, edges with four FeO6 octahedra, and edges with six LiO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 3–8°. There are a spread of Li–O bond distances ranging from 2.06–2.28 Å. In the second Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form LiO6 octahedra that share a cornercorner with one CoO6 octahedra, corners with five FeO6 octahedra, edges with two equivalent CoO6 octahedra, edges with four FeO6 octahedra, and edges with six LiO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 4–8°. There are a spread of Li–O bond distances ranging from 2.09–2.25 Å. In the third Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form LiO6 octahedra that share corners with two FeO6 octahedra, corners with four equivalent CoO6 octahedra, edges with two equivalent CoO6 octahedra, edges with four FeO6 octahedra, and edges with six LiO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 4–8°. There are a spread of Li–O bond distances ranging from 2.11–2.24 Å. There are two inequivalent Fe3+ sites. In the first Fe3+ site, Fe3+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form FeO6 octahedra that share corners with six LiO6 octahedra, edges with two equivalent CoO6 octahedra, edges with four FeO6 octahedra, and edges with six LiO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 5–8°. There are a spread of Fe–O bond distances ranging from 2.03–2.07 Å. In the second Fe3+ site, Fe3+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form FeO6 octahedra that share corners with six LiO6 octahedra, edges with two equivalent CoO6 octahedra, edges with four FeO6 octahedra, and edges with six LiO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 4–8°. There are a spread of Fe–O bond distances ranging from 2.02–2.07 Å. Co3+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form CoO6 octahedra that share corners with six LiO6 octahedra, edges with two equivalent CoO6 octahedra, edges with four FeO6 octahedra, and edges with six LiO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 3–8°. There is two shorter (1.96 Å) and four longer (1.97 Å) Co–O bond length. There are six inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded to three Li1+, one Fe3+, and two equivalent Co3+ atoms to form OLi3FeCo2 octahedra that share corners with six OLi3Fe3 octahedra and edges with twelve OLi3FeCo2 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 0–2°. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded to three Li1+, two equivalent Fe3+, and one Co3+ atom to form OLi3Fe2Co octahedra that share corners with six OLi3Fe3 octahedra and edges with twelve OLi3FeCo2 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 0–2°. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded to three Li1+ and three Fe3+ atoms to form OLi3Fe3 octahedra that share corners with six OLi3Fe3 octahedra and edges with twelve OLi3FeCo2 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 1–2°. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded to three Li1+ and three Fe3+ atoms to form OLi3Fe3 octahedra that share corners with six OLi3Fe3 octahedra and edges with twelve OLi3FeCo2 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 1–2°. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded to three Li1+, two equivalent Fe3+, and one Co3+ atom to form OLi3Fe2Co octahedra that share corners with six OLi3Fe3 octahedra and edges with twelve OLi3FeCo2 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 0–3°. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded to three Li1+, one Fe3+, and two equivalent Co3+ atoms to form OLi3FeCo2 octahedra that share corners with six OLi3Fe3 octahedra and edges with twelve OLi3FeCo2 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 0–3°.
