“…Combining these ions’ respective features, it is amazing and attractive to introduce them into one structure, which may show a special structure and interesting physical properties. Previously, several types of RE chalcogenide borates have been reported, including RE 3 S 3 BO 3 (RE = Sm, Gd), Eu 2 SB 5 O 9 , Eu 4.5 B 5 O 9 SI, YSeBO 2 , Eu 9 MgS 2 B 20 O 41 , and RE 6 M 2 MgQB 8 O 26 (RE = La–Nd, Sm–Gd; M = Ta, Nb; Q = S, Se) . All of them exhibit magnetic behaviors, and some are NLO actives.…”
