We calculated the electronic structure of a novel non-centrosymmetric superconductor Mg 2-x Rh 3 P from first-principles. Stoichiometric Mg 2 Rh 3 P shows a pseudogap at the Fermi level. This is consistent with the experimental fact that the stoichiometric sample Mg 2 Rh 3 P does not show superconductivity and the Mg-deficient sample Mg 19 Rh 3 P shows superconductivity with T c∼ 3.6 K. The band dispersion of Mg 2 Rh 3 P shows a characteristic band splitting due to the anti-symmetric spin-orbit coupling (ASOC). The magnitude of ASOC of Mg 2 Rh 3 P is comparable to Li 2 Pd 3 B. We also show that its 5d-counterpart Mg 2 Ir 3 P may have quite a large ASOC, and is a good candidate of parity-mixed superconductor likewise Li 2 Pd 3 B.
