“…The properties of such compounds in addition to the chemical composition are also determined by the crystal structure. As a rule, these are highly symmetrical structures of pyrochlore, perovskite, or fluorite type. − The compounds based on BaLa 2 WO 7 , − doped with some lanthanides (Sm, Eu, Dy, Er, and Tm), − and their luminescent properties are also described in the literature. Nevertheless, the mentioned works present predominantly the results of studies of their luminescent properties, while there is no description of some other characteristics, including thermodynamic properties.…”
