Abstract:The structure, IR absorption and luminescence spectra of Pr0.99-xLuxEu0.01BO3 orthoborates synthesized at 970oC were studied at 0≤ x≤0.99. An increase in the concentration of lutetium leads to a sequential change of the structural state of the orthoborates. At first, the orthoborates are single-phase and have an aragonite structure (0≤ x≤0.1). Then, they become two-phase and contain the aragonite and vaterite phases (0.1<x<0.6). With a further increase in x (0.6<x≤0.8), the compounds are single-phase … Show more
