Materials Data on PIr2 by Materials Project
Ir2P is Fluorite structured and crystallizes in the cubic Fm-3m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Ir is bonded to six equivalent Ir and four equivalent P atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge, corner, and face-sharing IrP4Ir6 tetrahedra. All Ir–Ir bond lengths are 2.80 Å. All Ir–P bond lengths are 2.42 Å. P is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight equivalent Ir atoms.
