Materials Data on LiCuS2 by Materials Project
LiCuS2 crystallizes in the monoclinic C2/m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Li1+ is bonded to six equivalent S2- atoms to form distorted edge-sharing LiS6 octahedra. There are two shorter (2.56 Å) and four longer (2.68 Å) Li–S bond lengths. Cu3+ is bonded in a square co-planar geometry to four equivalent S2- atoms. All Cu–S bond lengths are 2.24 Å. S2- is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Li1+ and two equivalent Cu3+ atoms.
