LiNi2O4 is Spinel structured and crystallizes in the cubic Fd-3m space group. Li(1) is bonded to four equivalent O(1) atoms to form LiO4 tetrahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent Ni(1)O6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 59°. Ni(1) is bonded to six equivalent O(1) atoms to form NiO6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent Li(1)O4 tetrahedra and edges with six equivalent Ni(1)O6 octahedra. O(1) is bonded to one Li(1) and three equivalent Ni(1) atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing OLiNi3 trigonal pyramids.
