Effects of water uptake on the inherently oxygen-deficient compounds Ln26O27 square(BO3)8 (Ln=La, Nd)

The inherently oxygen-deficient compounds Ln26O27 square(BO3)8 (Ln=La, Nd) react with water vapor leading to Ln26O26(OH)2(BO3)8 phases, and this reaction is reversible. The crystal structure of Nd26O27 square(BO3)8 has been determined from single-crystal data (space group P with a=6.7643(10) A, b=12.663(2) A, c=14.271(2) A, alpha=90.553(8) degrees, beta=99.778(10) degrees, and gamma=90.511(9) degrees). It is a triclinic distorted version of the monoclinic structure of La26O27 square(BO3)8. The Ln26O26(OH)2(BO3)8 phases both crystallize in the monoclinic system (space group P21/c with a=6.7445(4) A, b=12.6177(9) A, c=14.4947(10) A, and beta=100.168(7) degrees for Nd26O26(OH)2(BO3)8 and a=6.9130(15) A, b=12.896(3) A, c=14.792(4) A, beta=99.698(16) degrees for La26O26(OH)2(BO3)8), and their crystal structure has been determined from single-crystal data, showing that the hydroxyl groups are localized mainly on one of the oxygen sites at room temperature (RT). For the Nd phases, the change in crystal system can result from two different phenomena depending on the atmosphere, either a phase transformation corresponding to a water uptake under wet conditions (triclinic Nd26O27 square(BO3)8 at RT-->monoclinic Nd26O26(OH)2(BO3)8) or a phase transition at approximately 300 degrees C for the anhydrous phase under dry conditions (triclinic Nd26O27 square(BO3)8 at RT-->monoclinic Nd26O27 square(BO3)8 at T>300 degrees C). For Nd26O26(OH)2(BO3)8, the conductivity measured under wet conditions at 300 degrees C is sigma300 degrees C approximately 0.5x10(-5) S cm(-1). Due to the dehydration process, the proton contribution to the total conductivity of the Nd phase is no longer observed above 500 degrees C whereas it was still clearly visible at 600 degrees C for the La phase.

Based on the Judd-Ofelt theory, the three parameters of line oscillator strength Ω(λ) (λ = 2, 4 and 6) of the Nd3+ion in the crystal were calculated as follows: Ω2= 1.194 × 10-20, Ω4= 4.186 × 10-20 and Ω6 = 3.351 × 10-20cm2, which are relatively larger. The results indicate that the crystal Nd0.06Y0.94Sr6Sc(BO3)6 may be a kind of high-efficient laser material for diode-pumped.
