Materials Data on EuNiP by Materials Project
EuNiP crystallizes in the hexagonal P-6m2 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Eu2+ is bonded to six equivalent P3- atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner, edge, and face-sharing EuP6 pentagonal pyramids. All Eu–P bond lengths are 3.09 Å. Ni1+ is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three equivalent P3- atoms. All Ni–P bond lengths are 2.26 Å. P3- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to six equivalent Eu2+ and three equivalent Ni1+ atoms.
