Production and properties of high purity TeO2− WO3−(La2O3, Bi2O3) and TeO2− ZnO−Na2O−Bi2O3 glasses

TeO₂–WO₃ (TW), TeO₂–WO₃–La₂O₃ (TWL), TeO₂–WO₃–La₂O₃–Bi₂O₃ (TWLB) and TeO₂–ZnO–Na₂O–Bi₂O₃ (TZNB) glasses were produced by high-purity oxide mixtures melting in platinum or gold crucible at 800 °C in the atmosphere of purified oxygen.

The stability of TZNB glasses to crystallization, characterized by (T_x ? T_g) value more than 150 °C, was demonstrated by DSC measurements at heating rate 10 K/min. In the case of La₂O₃-containing glasses the thermal effects of both crystallization and fusion of the crystallized phases were not observed. The hydroxyl groups absorption coefficients of pure tellurite glasses at the maximum of the absorption band (λ ~ 3 μm) were in the region of 0.012–0.001 cm^?1. The optical absorption losses, measured by the laser calorimetry method at λ = 1.56 and 1.97 μm, did not exceed 100 dB/km.

The X-ray crystal structure of trinuclear iron acetate [Fe₃O(CH₃COO)₆(H₂O)₃]₂ [ZnCl₄] ? 2H₂O was determined. The crystal has a ionic structure.

New framework hydrous silicate K3Sc[Si3O9] · H2O related to the high-temperature anhydrous silicate K3Ho[Si3O9] and symmetry analysis of a phase transition with prediction of structures

Crystals of a new framework silicate K₃Sc[Si₃O₉] · H₂O, space group Pm2₁ n (nonstandard setting of space group Pmn2₁ = C _2v ⁷), are obtained under hydrothermal conditions. The structure is determined without preliminary knowledge of the chemical formula. The absolute configuration is determined. The structure is close to that of the high-temperature K₃Ho[Si₃O₉] phase, which was obtained upon the heating of K₃HoSi₃O₈(OH)₂. This structural similarity is due to the specific conditions of synthesis and an analogous formula, where holmium is replaced by scandium. A symmetry analysis shows that the high local symmetry of a block (rod) is responsible for the first-order phase transition of both the order-disorder (OD) and displacement type. The number of structures in which the simplest and high-symmetry layers are multiplied by different symmetry elements are predicted.

Potassium bromo-borate K3[B6O10]Br—A new nonlinear optical material

A new polar hexaborate, K₃[B₆O₁₀]Br (space group R3m), is synthesized under hydrothermal conditions. The radical anion is composed of macallisterite hexaborate blocks 6[3Δ + 3T] formed by boron triangles and boron tetrahedra.

New layer megaborate Sm3[B13O22(OH)3](OH) · 3H2O and its place in the structural systematics

Crystals of a new aqueous rare earth borate Sm₃[B₁₃O₂₂(OH)₃](OH) · 3H₂O, space group P2/c, are obtained under hydrothermal conditions. The structure is determined by the heavy-atom method without preliminary knowledge of the chemical formula. The anionic radical is a boron-oxygen sheet in which two corrugated layers are related by centers of inversion. An independent layer is akin to pentaborate layers; it differs from the layer in (Nd_0.925Na_0.075)Nd[B₉O₁₅(OH)₂]Cl_0.85 · 2.65H₂O by an additional branch in the form of a 4: (3[2?? + 1T] + 1??) group. The intersheet space and large holes of the sheet accommodate Sm atoms, (OH) groups, and water molecules. The new Sm-borate and the related Nd-borate are polyborates (megaborates) with complex anionic radicals. In the Sm-borate, the new two-dimensional [B₁₃O₂₂(OH)₃]_??? complex anionic radical of the 13{(4: [2T + 2??])_?? + (5: [3T + 2??] + 4: (3[2?? + 1T] +1??))_??}_??? formula is built of three different blocks, unlike the [B₉O₁₅(OH)₂]_??? radical of the 9{(4: [2T + 2??])_?? + (5: [3T + 2??])_??}_??? formula in the Nd-borate, which consists of two blocks. The rule of the inverse relationship between the polymerization degrees of the boron-oxygen radical and rare earth polyhedra holds for both borates.
