Syntheses and crystal structures of the α- and β-forms of zinc orthoborate, Zn3B2O6

Phase relations and flux research for ZnO crystal growth in the ZnO–B2O3–P2O5 system

“…The 3:1 compound was indexed based on the monoclinic C2/c structure with lattice parameters a = 23.835(3), b = 5.042(0), c = 8.381(1)Å, β = 102.9 • , which is consistent with the ␤-phase of the 3:1 compound by Ref. [7] and also agrees with the reports of Refs. [8,9] when the body-center lattice is converted to the c-face-center lattice.…”

“…It belongs to the rhombohedral system with space group R3c and lattice parameters a = b = c = 9.9115(4)Å, α = β = γ = 48.602(1) • [6]. Chen et al [7] obtained two polymorphic phases, i.e. the ␣ phase and the ␤ phase of the 3:1 compound using PbO as flux.…”

Subsolidus phase relations in the system ZnO–B2O3–V2O5

“…Recently, Kurzawa et al [17] [12,30] obtained similar lattice parameters of the three compounds, which also agree with the results from Refs. [20][21][22], Refs. [23][24][25] and Ref.…”

Fabrication and opto-electrical properties of amorphous (Zn,B)O thin film by pulsed laser deposition

“…All the targets are polycrystalline, and only diffraction peaks from pure wurtize ZnO phase (indicated by circles) are detected for the B 2 O 3 concentrations up to 2%. On the other hand, extra peaks (indicated by triangles), which are attributed to be ¢-Zn 3 (BO 3 ) 2 phase, 24) were observed for the B 2 O 3 concentration 5 mol % and higher. As increasing the doping concentration, the intensities of the extra peaks increased, while those from the ZnO phase decreased.…”
