Scandium phosphide is an inorganic compound of scandium and phosphorus with the chemical formula Sc P . [3] [4] [5]
ScP can be obtained by the reaction of scandium and phosphorus at 1000 °C. [2]
This compound is calculated to be a semiconductor used in high power, high frequency applications and in laser diodes. [6] [7]
ScP can be smelted with cobalt or nickel through electric arc to obtain ScCoP and ScNiP. [8]
