Synthesis, Crystal and Electronic Structure of La2SiP4

Journal Article · · Zeitschrift fuer Anorganische und Allgemeine Chemie
La2SiP4 (mP-28, Z=4, Wyckoff sequence e7, space group P21/c (No. 14), a=10.8230(6) Å, b=7.5208(4) Å, c=7.9189(4) Å, and β=105.389(2)°) which crystallizes in the La2CuS4 structure type is reported here. Instead of isolated CuS3 triangles bridged by disulfide anions, in the crystal structure of La2SiP4, one-dimensional zig-zag chains composed of SiP4 tetrahedra connected by P–P bonds are present. Lanthanum cations fill the voids between the chains and are coordinated by either 9P or 8P+Si atoms. La2SiP4 is a narrow bandgap semiconductor with calculated and measured optical bandgaps of 0.35 eV and 0.85(1) eV, respectively.
