CuFe2O4 is Spinel structured and crystallizes in the tetragonal I4_1/amd space group. Fe(1) is bonded to six equivalent O(1) atoms to form FeO6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent Cu(1)O4 tetrahedra and edges with six equivalent Fe(1)O6 octahedra. Cu(1) is bonded to four equivalent O(1) atoms to form CuO4 tetrahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent Fe(1)O6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 58-59°. O(1) is bonded to three equivalent Fe(1) and one Cu(1) atom to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing OFe3Cu trigonal pyramids.
CuFe2O4 is Spinel structured and crystallizes in the tetragonal I4_1/amd space group. Fe(1) is bonded to six equivalent O(1) atoms to form FeO6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent Cu(1)O4 tetrahedra and edges with six equivalent Fe(1)O6 octahedra. There are two shorter (2.01 Å) and four longer (2.02 Å) Fe(1)-O(1) bond lengths. Cu(1) is bonded to four equivalent O(1) atoms to form CuO4 tetrahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent Fe(1)O6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 58-59°. All Cu(1)-O(1) bond lengths are 1.96 Å. O(1) is bonded to three equivalent Fe(1) and one Cu(1) atom to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing OFe3Cu trigonal pyramids.
