Materials Data on Yb3P by Materials Project
Yb3P is Uranium Silicide structured and crystallizes in the cubic Pm-3m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Yb is bonded in a distorted square co-planar geometry to four equivalent P atoms. All Yb–P bond lengths are 3.29 Å. P is bonded to twelve equivalent Yb atoms to form a mixture of face and corner-sharing PYb12 cuboctahedra.
