Materials Data on TaPRu by Materials Project

Abstract

TaRuP crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Ta is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Ru and five equivalent P atoms. There are a spread of Ta–Ru bond distances ranging from 2.88–2.93 Å. There are a spread of Ta–P bond distances ranging from 2.64–2.72 Å. Ru is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Ta, two equivalent Ru, and four equivalent P atoms. Both Ru–Ru bond lengths are 2.78 Å. There are a spread of Ru–P bond distances ranging from 2.37–2.43 Å. P is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to five equivalent Ta and four equivalent Ru atoms.
