Abstract

A new acentric borate, K2Na3[{B6O10(OH)}-{B3O4(OH)3}] ⋅ H2O (1) has been made under solvothermal condition. 1 has layered structure made by B6O13(OH)-based chains and B3O5(OH)3-bridging clusters. Second-harmonic generation (SHG) measurements reveal that 1 is a phase-matchable nonlinear optical (NLO) material, showing the SHG signal intensity of 1.8 times that of KDP (KH2PO4). Besides, UV-Vis diffuse reflectance spectrum shows that 1 has the short deep UV (DUV) absorption cutoff edge of 198 nm. Thermogravimetric analysis reveals it has good thermal stability. Also 1 represents firstly mixed oxoboron clusters-made 2D layered borate with NLO property.
