Abstract
We report the first investigation of the electrical and magnetic properties of the triangular-lattice compound Zr2NiP2 (space group P63/mmc). The temperature evolution of electrical resistivity follows the Bloch–Grüneisen–Mott law, and exhibits a typically metallic behavior. No transition is visible by both electrical and magnetic property measurements, and nearly no magnetization is detected (M0<0.002μB/Ni) down to 1.8 K up to 7 T. The metallic and nonmagnetic characters are well understood by the first-principles calculations for Zr2NiP2.
