Materials Data on Nb4NiP by Materials Project
Nb4NiP is Khatyrkite-derived structured and crystallizes in the tetragonal P4/mcc space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Nb is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Ni and two equivalent P atoms. Both Nb–Ni bond lengths are 2.64 Å. Both Nb–P bond lengths are 2.61 Å. Ni is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to eight equivalent Nb and two equivalent Ni atoms. Both Ni–Ni bond lengths are 2.50 Å. P is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to eight equivalent Nb and two equivalent P atoms. Both P–P bond lengths are 2.50 Å.
