“…The crystal structure of Cu 2 OSeO 3 has been studied before [19,20] but has never been revisited using modern crystallographic tools that allow the establishment of the absolute structure via the refinement of so-called Flack parameter [21][22][23]. Such analysis is based on the difference between Friedel pairs [I (hkl) − I (hkl)] due to a resonant contribution in the x-ray scattering amplitudes.…”

Small-angle diffraction of polarized neutrons and resonant contribution to diffraction of synchrotron radiation have been applied to prove chirality of the crystal and magnetic structures of the magnetoelectric insulator Cu 2 OSeO 3 . Similarly to other chiral magnets with P 2 1 3 crystal structure the corresponding chiralities are linked to each other via the phenomenological Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction. The crystal and magnetic structures for Cu 2 OSeO 3 have the same chirality as is observed for MnSi, Mn 1−x Fe x Si, and MnGe. However, the combination of chiralities is opposite to that proposed from a recent theoretical consideration. The chiral link between structure and magnetism previously found for metallic compounds is also proved to exist for an insulator (Cu 2 OSeO 3 ), allowing us to conclude that the conducting electrons play no role in a possible common microscopic mechanism of this specific magnetolattice interaction.

“…15,16 The nickel borate compounds Ni 3 (BO 3 ) 2 and Ni(BO 2 ) 2 have been investigated as candidates for several applications based on this unique behavior. [17][18][19][20][21] Recently, Dincă et al reported that a nickel borate thin film electrodeposited from a dilute Ni 2+ solution in a borate electrolyte (a so-called Ni-B i thin film) functions as an efficient electrocatalyst in an oxygen evolution reaction. 22 The characteristics of these Ni-B i thin films were investigated by Ni Kedge X-ray absorption fine structure (XAFS) and electrochemical kinetics, and it was found that the average valence state of the nickel species changes from +2.0 to +3.6 in response to an applied positive voltage.…”

The electrochromic transition of a nickel borate thin film between colorless and brown was examined by means of in situ XAFS and UV/vis spectroscopy. The XAFS spectra showed that the average valence state of the nickel species in the film changed from +2.1 to +3.8 following the application of an electrode potential. Additionally, a broad peak at 700 nm was observed during in situ UV/vis absorption measurements on the application of a positive potential. These results suggest that the nickel borate film reversibly forms a NiOOH structure with a domain size of several nanometers during the electrochromic reaction.

Abstract:Vibrational spectroscopy has been used to assess the structure of kotoite a borate mineral of magnesium which is isostructural with jimboite. The mineral is orthorhombic with point group: 2/m 2/m 2/m. The mineral has the potential as a new memory insulator material.The mineral has been characterised by a combination of Raman and infrared spectroscopy.The Raman spectrum is dominated by a very intense band at 835 cm -1 , assigned to the symmetric stretching mode of tetrahedral boron. Raman bands at 919, 985 and 1015 cm -1 are attributed to the antisymmetric stretching modes of tetrahedral boron.Kotoite is strictly an hydrous borate mineral. An intense Raman band observed at 3559 cm -1 is attributed to the stretching vibration of hydroxyl units, more likely to be associated with the borate mineral hydroxyborate. The lack of observation of water bending modes proves the absence of water in the kotoite structure.
