A novel lithium copper iron phosphate with idealized formula Li5Cu22+Fe3+(PO4)4: crystal structure and distribution of defects

Gray–green single crystals were obtained under high-pressure, high-temperature hydrothermal conditions. A refinement of atom occupancies gave the composition Li3.68Cu2+Fe3+(Cu0.55Li0.45)2Fe2+0.15(PO4)4. The structure is built from triplets of edge-sharing (Cu,Li)O5–FeO6&a...
