“…The crystals were grown by a slow cooling method [24]. The X-ray diffraction data of the single crystals were collected on an X-ray Rigaku diffractometer D/Max-2400 with Cu Kα radiation (45 kV, 150 mA) at room temperature.…”

“…The parallel arranged [B 3 O 6 ] 3 À groups separate the RE 3 þ ions, which makes the energy migration between two RE 3 þ ions difficult. Taking ErBa 3 B 9 O 18 (EBBO) as an example, the shortest distance of two Er 3 þ ions is 7.17 Å, which is long enough to limit the energy transfer between luminescent centers [23][24][25]. So, the quenching effect in EBBO is proved to be small and Er 3 þ herein may be an efficient luminescent center.…”

“…YBa 3 B 9 O 18 takes an analogous structure of α‐BaB 2 O 4 with the centrosymmetric space group P6 3 /m with lattice parameters a = 7.1766 Å and c = 16.9657 Å. Planar B 3 O 6 groups, the fundamental building units, are parallel to each other and stack along the c ‐axis connected by regular YO 6 octahedra, deformed BaO 6 hexagons and irregular BaO 9 polyhedra. Additionally, a novel series of isostructural compounds RBa 3 B 9 O 18 (R = Pr, Nd, Sm, Eu, Gd, Tb, Dy, Ho, Er, Tm, Yb) were discovered by substituting of lanthanides for Y 12–17.…”

In this paper, we present our progresses on single‐crystal growth of a variety of compounds from new borates to industrial semiconductors, reflecting our efforts in new compounds exploration, structure analysis, property characterization, flux growth, and vapor growth of industrial semiconductors. Typical examples are selected with each serving to show one theme. YBa3B9O18 and ErBa3B9O18, two members of a newly discovered series RBa3B9O18 (R = Y, Pr, Nd, Sm, Eu, Gd, Tb, Dy, Ho, Er, Tm, Yb) are found to be potential scintillation materials and laser hosts. KZnB3O6, the first borate with edge‐sharing BO4 tetrahedra obtained under ambient conditions, shows a very interesting selective ion exchange. The study of a well‐known crystal YVO4 reveals that the negative refraction (NR) is an intrinsic property of all uniaxial crystals. For technically important crystals, our emphases are placed on the study of growth methods. GaN is successfully realized to grow under very facile conditions based on a flux method developed from combining the phase relation calculation and experiments. Achievements on growth of 2–4 inch quality SiC wafers, both semi‐insulating and conducting, through improved physical vapor transport (PVT) method are also reported. A brief summary and our perspectives on crystal growth are given at the end. 2–4‐inch n‐type 4H‐SiC wafers grown by a PVT method.

“…The parallel arranged [B 3 O 6 ] 3− groups can separate the R 3+ ions, which makes the energy migration between two rare earth ions difficult. Taking YBa 3 B 9 O 18 and ErBa 3 B 9 O 18 (EBBO) as examples, the shortest distance of two Y 3+ or Er 3+ ions is 7.16-7.17Å, which is long enough to limit the energy transfer between luminescent centers [20][21][22]. So, the quenching effect in EBBO is proved to be small and Er 3+ may be an efficient luminescent center.…”

The optical absorption and emission intensity of luminescent and birefringent crystal ErBa3B9O18were examined from optical absorption data based on Judd-Ofelt theory. The three intensity parametersΩt(t=2,4,6) are 3.10 × 10−20, 0.87 × 10−20, and 1.80 × 10−20 cm2, respectively. From the obtained intensity parameters, the radiative probabilitiesAr, radiative lifetimeτf, fluorescence branching ratiosβc, and integrated emission cross sections∑have been calculated. In comparison with other Er-doped luminescent crystals, ErBa3B9O18may find application in thin disk laser.
