LiAlTe2 is Chalcopyrite structured and crystallizes in the tetragonal I-42d space group. Li(1) is bonded to four equivalent Te(1) atoms to form LiTe4 tetrahedra that share corners with four equivalent Li(1)Te4 tetrahedra and corners with eight equivalent Al(1)Te4 tetrahedra. Al(1) is bonded to four equivalent Te(1) atoms to form AlTe4 tetrahedra that share corners with four equivalent Al(1)Te4 tetrahedra and corners with eight equivalent Li(1)Te4 tetrahedra. Te(1) is bonded to two equivalent Li(1) and two equivalent Al(1) atoms to form corner-sharing TeLi2Al2 tetrahedra.
