“…This material represents another in a series of copper containing borates, phosphates, and molybdates that have been investigated for their magnetic properties [14][15][16][33][34][35]. The magnetic properties can be easily modeled by Heisenberg magnetism (typically 1D chains and especially dimers).…”

“…Cuprate and borate groups are two-dimensional spin gap systems with the exact dimer ground state [6][7][8]. Additionally, several borate phases display excellent linear and non-linear optical properties [9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16]. The combination of cuprate and borate groups in the same compound may generate a new class of interesting materials as the ternary PbO-CuO-B 2 O 3 system has been studied very little [17].…”

Single crystals of Pb 2 CuB 2 O 6 were grown from a PbO/CuO/B 2 O 3 flux, and crystallize in a monoclinic cell of dimensions a = 5.6311(6), b = 8.7628(9), c = 6.2025(6) Å , and b = 115.7060(10)8 with Z = 2; the space group is P2 1 /c (no. 14). The structure was determined from 662 unique reflections and refined to the final residuals R 1 = 0.0217, wR 2 = 0.0586. The structure is characterized by the two-dimensional layer of interconnected rectangular planar CuO 4 and triangular planar BO 3 groups. The results of quantitative analysis ICP, DTA, vibrational spectroscopy, and magnetic investigations are also presented. #

Gadolinium calcium oxoborate (GdCOB) is a nonlinear optical material that belongs to the calcium-rare-earth (R) oxoborate family, with general composition Ca 4 RO(BO 3 ) 3 (R 3+ = La, Sm, Gd, Lu, Y). X-ray photoemission was applied to study the valence band electronic structure and surface chemistry of this material. High resolution photoemission measurements on the valence band electronic structure and Gd 3d and 4d, Ca 2p, B 1s and O 1s core lines were used to evaluate the surface and near surface chemistry. These results provide measurements of the valence band electronic structure and surface chemistry of this rare-earth oxoborate.

“…As a useful ultraviolet (UV) NLO material, K[B 5 O 6 (OH) 4 ]·2H 2 O (KB 5 ) is the first NLO crystal discovered in the series of borates [1]. After that, various borate crystals, including b-BaB 2 O 4 (BBO) [2], LiB 3 O 5 (LBO) [3], Sr 2 B 2 Be 2 O 7 (SBBO) [4], BiB 3 O 6 (BiBO) [5] and the latest Ca 4 LnO (BO 3 ) 3 (CLnOB, where Ln Gd, La, Y) [6], have been studied as promising NLO crystals. Presently, the most efficient self-frequency doubling compound in still YAl 3 (BO 3 ) 4 :Nd [7].…”
