Abstract

Abstract : A new noncentrosymmetric borate Na3 Y3 (BO3 )4 was synthesized. It features a zeolite-type framework, which is extremely rare in borates. Abstract : A new noncentrosymmetric borate, Na3 Y3 (BO3 )4, was grown in the Na2 O–B2 O3 –NaF flux system. Its open-framework structure features a large hexagonal tunnel (5.92 Å in diameter), which is extremely rare in borates. First-principles calculations on its kinetic stability and optical properties were performed.
