Abstract

Mössbauer isomer shift and magnetic susceptibility measurements clearly prove the divalent nature of Eu in EuPd2P2, a new compound recentlu classified as intermediate valent on grounds of its unit-cell volume anomaly. We explain the relatively small positive deviation in unit-cell volume from the systematic trend in trivalent REPd2P2 compounds as a consequence of strong chemical bonding between the divalent Eu ion and the ligands.
