Materials Data on La(CoP)2 by Materials Project

LaCo2P2 is alpha bismuth trifluoride-derived structured and crystallizes in the monoclinic C2/m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. La3+ is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight equivalent P3- atoms. There are a spread of La–P bond distances ranging from 3.10–3.14 Å. Co+1.50+ is bonded to four equivalent P3- atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing CoP4 tetrahedra. There are two shorter (2.21 Å) and two longer (2.22 Å) Co–P bond lengths. P3- is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to four equivalent La3+ and four equivalent Co+1.50+ atoms.
