Materials Data on Zr2Te2P by Materials Project
Zr2PTe2 is MAX Phase-like structured and crystallizes in the trigonal R-3m space group. The structure is two-dimensional and consists of three Zr2PTe2 sheets oriented in the (0, 0, 1) direction. Zr+3.50+ is bonded to three equivalent P3- and three equivalent Te2- atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing ZrTe3P3 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 0°. All Zr–P bond lengths are 2.65 Å. All Zr–Te bond lengths are 2.92 Å. P3- is bonded to six equivalent Zr+3.50+ atoms to form edge-sharing PZr6 octahedra. Te2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Zr+3.50+ atoms.
