Scandium phosphide is aninorganic compound ofscandium andphosphorus with thechemical formulaScP.[3][4][5]
ScP can be obtained by the reaction of scandium andphosphorus at 1000 °C.[2]
This compound is calculated to be asemiconductor used in high power,high frequency applications and inlaser diodes.[6][7]
ScP can besmelted withcobalt ornickel throughelectric arc to obtain ScCoP and ScNiP.[8]
