Materials Data on CdP2 by Materials Project
CdP2 crystallizes in the tetragonal P4_12_12 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Cd2+ is bonded to four P1- atoms to form CdP4 tetrahedra that share corners with four equivalent CdP4 tetrahedra and corners with eight PCd2P2 tetrahedra. There are one shorter (2.58 Å) and three longer (2.62 Å) Cd–P bond lengths. There are two inequivalent P1- sites. In the first P1- site, P1- is bonded to two equivalent Cd2+ and two equivalent P1- atoms to form PCd2P2 tetrahedra that share corners with four equivalent CdP4 tetrahedra and corners with eight PCd2P2 tetrahedra. There are one shorter (2.18 Å) and one longer (2.23 Å) P–P bond lengths. In the second P1- site, P1- is bonded to two equivalent Cd2+ and two equivalent P1- atoms to form PCd2P2 tetrahedra that share corners with four equivalent CdP4 tetrahedra and corners with eight PCd2P2 tetrahedra.
