Abstract
A new compound, dipotassium holmium(III) phosphate(V) tungstate(VI), K2Ho(PO4)(WO4), has been obtained during investigation of the K2O–P2O5–WO3–HoF3 phase system using the flux technique. The compound is isotypic with K2Bi(PO4)(WO4). Its framework structure consists of flat ∞ 2[HoPO4] layers parallel to (100) that are made up of ∞ 1[HoO8] zigzag chains interlinked via slightly distorted PO4 tetrahedra. WO4 tetrahedra are attached above and below these layers, leaving space for the K+ counter-cations. The HoO8, PO4 and WO4 units exhibit 2 symmetry.
