Abstract

The first mixed calcium zinc borate with a new fundamental building block (FBB) [B8 O17 ], Ca1.13 Zn0.87 B8 O14 has been successfully synthesized. It exhibits two independent interpenetrating three-dimensional B-O anion networks constructed by [B8 O17 ] groups, enriching the structural diversity of B-O configurations. In particular, the UV-Vis-NIR diffuse-reflectance spectrum shows that it has a short UV cutoff edge (<195 nm).
