In the first P3- site, P3- is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Yb3+, one Cu1+, and three equivalent Zn2+ atoms. In the second P3- site, P3- is bonded to three equivalent Yb3+, three equivalent Cu1+, and one Zn2+ atom to form distorted edge-sharing PYb3ZnCu3 pentagonal bipyramids.

Materials Data on SmZnAgP2 by Materials Project

AgZnSmP2 crystallizes in the trigonal P3m1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Sm3+ is bonded to six P3- atoms to form SmP6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent AgP4 tetrahedra, corners with six equivalent ZnP4 tetrahedra, edges with six equivalent SmP6 octahedra, edges with three equivalent AgP4 tetrahedra, and edges with three equivalent ZnP4 tetrahedra. There are three shorter (2.85 Å) and three longer (2.98 Å) Sm–P bond lengths. Ag1+ is bonded to four P3- atoms to form AgP4 tetrahedra that share corners with six equivalent SmP6 octahedra, corners with six equivalent AgP4 tetrahedra, edges with three equivalent SmP6 octahedra, and edges with three equivalent ZnP4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 14–54°. There are three shorter (2.53 Å) and one longer (2.61 Å) Ag–P bond lengths. Zn2+ is bonded to four P3- atoms to form ZnP4 tetrahedra that share corners with six equivalent SmP6 octahedra, corners with six equivalent ZnP4 tetrahedra, edges with three equivalent SmP6 octahedra, and edges with three equivalent AgP4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 17–57°. There are three shorter (2.54 Å) and one longer (2.59 Å) Zn–P bond lengths. There are two inequivalent P3- sites. In the first P3- site, P3- is bonded to three equivalent Sm3+, one Ag1+, and three equivalent Zn2+ atoms to form distorted PSm3Zn3Ag pentagonal bipyramids that share corners with three equivalent PSm3ZnAg3 pentagonal bipyramids and edges with twelve PSm3Zn3Ag pentagonal bipyramids. In the second P3- site, P3- is bonded to three equivalent Sm3+, three equivalent Ag1+, and one Zn2+ atom to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing PSm3ZnAg3 pentagonal bipyramids.
