CeAlO2 crystallizes in the tetragonal P4/mmm space group. Ce(1) is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight equivalent O(1) atoms. Al(1) is bonded in a square co-planar geometry to four equivalent O(1) atoms. O(1) is bonded to four equivalent Ce(1) and two equivalent Al(1) atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner, edge, and face-sharing OCe4Al2 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 0-62°.
