LiNiO2 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Imm2 space group. Li(1) is bonded to two equivalent O(1) and two equivalent O(2) atoms to form corner-sharing LiO4 tetrahedra. Ni(1) is bonded in a square co-planar geometry to two equivalent O(1) and two equivalent O(2) atoms. There are two inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O(1) is bonded to two equivalent Li(1) and two equivalent Ni(1) atoms to form corner-sharing OLi2Ni2 tetrahedra. In the second O site, O(2) is bonded in a rectangular see-saw-like geometry to two equivalent Li(1) and two equivalent Ni(1) atoms.
LiNiO2 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Imm2 space group. Li(1) is bonded to two equivalent O(1) and two equivalent O(2) atoms to form corner-sharing LiO4 tetrahedra. Both Li(1)-O(1) bond lengths are 2.00 Å. Both Li(1)-O(2) bond lengths are 1.97 Å. Ni(1) is bonded in a square co-planar geometry to two equivalent O(1) and two equivalent O(2) atoms. Both Ni(1)-O(1) bond lengths are 1.84 Å. Both Ni(1)-O(2) bond lengths are 1.84 Å. There are two inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O(1) is bonded to two equivalent Li(1) and two equivalent Ni(1) atoms to form corner-sharing OLi2Ni2 tetrahedra. In the second O site, O(2) is bonded in a rectangular see-saw-like geometry to two equivalent Li(1) and two equivalent Ni(1) atoms.
