Abstract

During attempts to synthesize a high-pressure phase of KSr4(BO3)3 using pressures of up to 12 GPa, single crystals of the normal-pressure phase KSr4(BO3)3 with sufficient quality for singlecrystal diffraction experiments could be obtained at 3 GPa and 1300 °C in a Walker-type multianvil apparatus. The single-crystal structure determination verified the published powder diffraction data of KSr4(BO3)3 revealing the non-centrosymmetric space group Ama2 with a = 1104:8(2), b=1199:1(2), c=688:8(2) pm and Z =4. Additionally, IR- and Raman-spectroscopic investigations were performed on single crystals of the compound.
