Materials Data on AsPRh4 by Materials Project
Rh4AsP is half-Heusler-like structured and crystallizes in the trigonal R-3m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Rh sites. In the first Rh site, Rh is bonded to one As and three equivalent P atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner and edge-sharing RhAsP3 tetrahedra. The Rh–As bond length is 2.52 Å. All Rh–P bond lengths are 2.43 Å. In the second Rh site, Rh is bonded to three equivalent As and one P atom to form a mixture of distorted corner and edge-sharing RhAs3P tetrahedra. All Rh–As bond lengths are 2.47 Å. The Rh–P bond length is 2.39 Å. As is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight Rh atoms. P is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight Rh atoms.
