“…This kind of surroundings offers a possibility to stabilize a bivalent rare-earth ion without reducing atmosphere, for example, Table 3 Selected bond lengths (Å) and angles ( • ) for Ba2Cd(BO3)2. a a Note. Symmetry transformations used to generate equivalent atoms: (#1) x + 1/2, y + 1/2, z; (#2) x + 1/2, −y + 3/2, z; #3 x, −y + 2, z; (#4) x, y + 1, z; Eu 2+ [28][29][30], then photoluminescence can be found in the doped compounds. [20], are closely related to Ba 2 Cd(BO 3 ) 2 in stoichiometry but differ in structure, crystallizes in non-centrosymmetric R3c, Pca2 1 and chiral P2 1 2 1 2 1 space group, respectively.…”
