SrPN2
SrPN2 is a thermodynamically stable, wide-band-gap insulating compound containing strontium, phosphorus, and nitrogen.
About SrPN2
SrPN2 is a ternary inorganic compound composed of strontium, phosphorus, and nitrogen. As a wide-band-gap insulator, it exhibits electronic characteristics that make it a subject of interest for specialized optoelectronic and dielectric research.
This material is thermodynamically stable, sitting directly on the convex hull, which indicates a robust structural configuration. Its presence across multiple structural databases highlights its significance as a well-defined phase within the strontium-phosphorus-nitrogen system.
Key Properties
Cross-validated computational properties for SrPN2, aggregated across 3 databases.
Band GapEnergy needed to move an electron from the valence band to the conduction band. Lower or zero values tend to behave more metallic; larger gaps are more insulating or semiconducting.
Energy Above HullThermodynamic distance from the most stable set of competing phases. 0 eV/atom is on the convex hull; small positive values may still be experimentally accessible.
StabilityA plain-language summary of the best reported energy-above-hull result. It reflects whether the lowest-energy structure is on, near, or far from the stability hull.
