Materials Data on Ca(Cu2P)2 by Materials Project

CaCu4P2 crystallizes in the tetragonal P4_2/mnm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Ca2+ is bonded to six equivalent P3- atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing CaP6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 40°. There are two shorter (2.89 Å) and four longer (2.95 Å) Ca–P bond lengths. Cu1+ is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to three equivalent P3- atoms. There are one shorter (2.37 Å) and two longer (2.41 Å) Cu–P bond lengths. P3- is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Ca2+ and six equivalent Cu1+ atoms.
