Materials Data on AlGaP2 by Materials Project
(AlP)(GaP) is Chalcopyrite-like structured and crystallizes in the tetragonal P-4m2 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Ga3+ is bonded to four equivalent P3- atoms to form GaP4 tetrahedra that share corners with four equivalent GaP4 tetrahedra and corners with eight equivalent AlP4 tetrahedra. All Ga–P bond lengths are 2.39 Å. Al3+ is bonded to four equivalent P3- atoms to form AlP4 tetrahedra that share corners with four equivalent AlP4 tetrahedra and corners with eight equivalent GaP4 tetrahedra. All Al–P bond lengths are 2.38 Å. P3- is bonded to two equivalent Ga3+ and two equivalent Al3+ atoms to form corner-sharing PAl2Ga2 tetrahedra.
