title: Materials Data on Li2VCrO4 by Materials Project

description: Li2VCrO4 is alpha Po-derived structured and crystallizes in the triclinic P-1 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 corners with three equivalent VO6 octahedra, corners with three equivalent CrO6 octahedra, edges with three VO6 octahedra, edges with three CrO6 octahedra, and edges with six LiO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 4–6°. There are a spread of Li–O bond distances ranging from 2.15–2.25 Å. In the second Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form LiO6 octahedra that share corners with two VO6 octahedra, corners with four CrO6 octahedra, edges with two equivalent CrO6 octahedra, edges with four VO6 octahedra, and edges with six LiO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 4–6°. There are a spread of Li–O bond distances ranging from 2.16–2.23 Å. In the third Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form LiO6 octahedra that share corners with two CrO6 octahedra, corners with four VO6 octahedra, edges with two equivalent VO6 octahedra, edges with four CrO6 octahedra, and edges with six LiO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 5–6°. There are a spread of Li–O bond distances ranging from 2.14–2.21 Å. There are two inequivalent V3+ sites. In the first V3+ site, V3+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form VO6 octahedra that share corners with six LiO6 octahedra, edges with two equivalent VO6 octahedra, edges with four CrO6 octahedra, and edges with six LiO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 5–6°. There are four shorter (2.04 Å) and two longer (2.09 Å) V–O bond lengths. In the second V3+ site, V3+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form VO6 octahedra that share corners with six LiO6 octahedra, edges with two VO6 octahedra, edges with four CrO6 octahedra, and edges with six LiO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 5–6°. There are four shorter (2.05 Å) and two longer (2.07 Å) V–O bond lengths. There are two inequivalent Cr3+ sites. In the first Cr3+ site, Cr3+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form CrO6 octahedra that share corners with six LiO6 octahedra, edges with two equivalent CrO6 octahedra, edges with four VO6 octahedra, and edges with six LiO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 5–6°. There are four shorter (2.03 Å) and two longer (2.05 Å) Cr–O bond lengths. In the second Cr3+ site, Cr3+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form CrO6 octahedra that share corners with six LiO6 octahedra, edges with two CrO6 octahedra, edges with four VO6 octahedra, and edges with six LiO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 4–6°. There are a spread of Cr–O bond distances ranging from 2.03–2.05 Å. There are six inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded to three Li1+, two V3+, and one Cr3+ atom to form OLi3V2Cr octahedra that share corners with six OLi3VCr2 octahedra and edges with twelve OLi3V2Cr octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 0–1°. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded to three Li1+, one V3+, and two Cr3+ atoms to form OLi3VCr2 octahedra that share corners with six OLi3VCr2 octahedra and edges with twelve OLi3V2Cr octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 0–1°. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded to three Li1+, two V3+, and one Cr3+ atom to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing OLi3V2Cr octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 0–1°. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded to three Li1+, one V3+, and two Cr3+ atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing OLi3VCr2 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 0–1°. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded to three Li1+, two equivalent V3+, and one Cr3+ atom to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing OLi3V2Cr octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 0–1°.
