β¦ Synopsis
Powder samples of K2Ln2(BO3)2O (Ln: La, Nd, Sm, Eu) are prepared by solid state reaction of K2CO3, Ln2O3, and H3BO3 (Pt crucible, 840-900 Β°C, 48 h). Single crystals of K2La2(BO3)2O are obtained by spontaneous crystallization from a melt of K2CO3, La2O3, H3BO3, and KF as a flux at 1050 Β°C. K2La2(BO3)2O crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21/c with Z = 4 and has a layered structure consisting of tightly bound [La 2 (BO 3 ] layers with K + located in the interlayer space. The K2La2(BO3)2O crystal is transparent from 215 to 2750 nm with an UV absorption edge of about 210 nm. -(ZENG, Q. D.; LI*,
