LiBGeO4 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Fmm2 space group. Li(1) is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to two equivalent O(1) and two equivalent O(2) atoms. B(1) is bonded to two equivalent O(1) and two equivalent O(2) atoms to form BO4 tetrahedra that share corners with four equivalent Ge(1)O4 tetrahedra. Ge(1) is bonded to two equivalent O(1) and two equivalent O(2) atoms to form GeO4 tetrahedra that share corners with four equivalent B(1)O4 tetrahedra. There are two inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O(1) is bonded in a distorted T-shaped geometry to one Li(1), one B(1), and one Ge(1) atom. In the second O site, O(2) is bonded in a distorted T-shaped geometry to one Li(1), one B(1), and one Ge(1) atom.
