description: Li4Ti3Fe2Cu3O16 is Spinel-derived structured and crystallizes in the monoclinic Cm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are four inequivalent Li sites. In the first Li site, Li is bonded to four O atoms to form LiO4 tetrahedra that share corners with three equivalent FeO6 octahedra, corners with four TiO6 octahedra, and corners with five CuO6 octahedra.
