The material described by Li2Co3TeO8 is Spinel-derived structured and crystallizes in the monoclinic Cc space group. There are two inequivalent Li sites. In the first Li site, Li(1) is bonded to one O(2), one O(3), one O(6), and one O(7) atom to form LiO4 tetrahedra that share corners with three equivalent Co(1)O6 octahedra, corners with three equivalent Co(2)O6 octahedra, corners with three equivalent Co(3)O6 octahedra, and corners with three equivalent Te(1)O6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 52-61°.
