Materials Data on LaPr(CoP)4 by Materials Project
PrLa(CoP)4 is alpha bismuth trifluoride-derived structured and crystallizes in the tetragonal P4/mmm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Pr3+ is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight equivalent P3- atoms. All Pr–P bond lengths are 3.11 Å. La3+ is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight equivalent P3- atoms. All La–P bond lengths are 3.14 Å. Co+1.50+ is bonded to four P3- atoms to form a mixture of corner and edge-sharing CoP4 tetrahedra. All Co–P bond lengths are 2.22 Å. There are two inequivalent P3- sites. In the first P3- site, P3- is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Pr3+ and four equivalent Co+1.50+ atoms. In the second P3- site, P3- is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to four equivalent La3+ and four equivalent Co+1.50+ atoms.
