Materials Data on Ca3P2 by Materials Project
Ca3P2 is High-temperature superconductor-like structured and crystallizes in the cubic Pm-3m space group. The structure is three-dimensional and consists of one phosphine molecule and one Ca3P framework. In the Ca3P framework, Ca2+ is bonded in a linear geometry to two equivalent P3- atoms. Both Ca–P bond lengths are 2.65 Å. P3- is bonded to six equivalent Ca2+ atoms to form corner-sharing PCa6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 0°.
