Synthesis and characterization of Multi-Functional Material MoBP3O12

Abstract

New metal borophosphate compound MoBP₃O₁₂, as a potential candidate of nonlinear optical material, was obtained by hydrothermal method. The title compound was synthesized from the mixture of MoO₃, B₂O₃, and (NH₄)₂HPO₄ with the molar ratio 1:0.5:3, by heating at 200 °C for 3 days. The powder X-ray diffraction data was indexed in tetragonal system with the refined unit cell parameters, a = b = 5.302 (8), c = 21.538 (4) Å and Z = 1. Stoichiometric chemical analysis of molybdenum was done by inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectroscopy (ICP-AES) and boron content was analysed by spectrophotometric azomethine H method. The indexed powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) data with POWD program, fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) spectrum and thermal analysis of MoBP₃O₁₂ are also given in the paper.
