description: LiBa3Ti5Nb3O21 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Cmc2_1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Li1+ is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to four O2- atoms. There are a spread of Li–O bond distances ranging from 1.85–2.67 Å. There are two inequivalent Ba2+ sites. In the first Ba2+ site, Ba2+ is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to twelve O2- atoms. There are a spread of Ba–O bond distances ranging from 2.79–3.27 Å. In the second Ba2+ site, Ba2+ is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to twelve O2- atoms.

In the second Ti4+ site, Ti4+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form TiO6 octahedra that share corners with two equivalent NbO6 octahedra, corners with three TiO6 octahedra, an edgeedge with one TiO6 octahedra, and an edgeedge with one NbO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 26–42°. There are a spread of Ti–O bond distances ranging from 1.89–2.15 Å. In the third Ti4+ site, Ti4+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form TiO6 octahedra that share corners with two equivalent TiO6 octahedra, corners with three NbO6 octahedra, and edges with two equivalent TiO6 octahedra.
