A new potassium rare earth oxyborate K2La2(BO3)2O

A series of potassium rare earth oxyborates, K2RE2(BO3)2O (RE=La, Nd, Sm and Eu), have been synthesized. Single crystal of the first member of the series, K2La2(BO3)2O, has been grown by the flux method. Its structure, determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction, shows that it belongs to the mono...

Zusammenfassung:A series of potassium rare earth oxyborates, K2RE2(BO3)2O (RE=La, Nd, Sm and Eu), have been synthesized. Single crystal of the first member of the series, K2La2(BO3)2O, has been grown by the flux method. Its structure, determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction, shows that it belongs to the monoclinic system, space group P21/c with unit cell parameters of a =11.422(2)aa, b =6.6803(13)aa, c =10.813(2)aa, beta =17.23(3)A degree and Z =4. Optical transmission spectrum shows that the K2La2(BO3)2O crystal is highly transparent from 215nm to 2750nm. Display Omitted
