Materials Data on Yb(CoP3)4 by Materials Project

Yb(CoP3)4 crystallizes in the cubic Im-3 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Yb3+ is bonded to twelve equivalent P1- atoms to form YbP12 cuboctahedra that share faces with eight equivalent CoP6 octahedra. All Yb–P bond lengths are 2.98 Å. Co+2.25+ is bonded to six equivalent P1- atoms to form CoP6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent CoP6 octahedra and faces with two equivalent YbP12 cuboctahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 60°. All Co–P bond lengths are 2.25 Å. P1- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to one Yb3+, two equivalent Co+2.25+, and two equivalent P1- atoms. There are one shorter (2.28 Å) and one longer (2.31 Å) P–P bond lengths.
