Description
Summary:Ternary rare-earth main-group pnictides RE x M y Pn z where M is a Group 13 or 14 element and Pn is P, As, Sb, or Bi form an emerging class of solid state compounds that frequently display extensive homoatomic MM and PnPn bonding in addition to heteroatomic MPn bonding in their anionic substructures. Their structures, properties, and bonding are discussed, with a focus on the antimonides, which have been most heavily investigated.
