Barium–Bismuth molybdate – a novel promising material for stimulated Raman scattering

The phase equilibria diagram of the BaMoO4–Bi2(MoO4)3 system has been studied. It was found that three phases BaMoO4, BaBi2(MoO4)4 and Bi2(MoO4)3 are formed in the system. The melting behavior of BaBi2(MoO4)4 was investigated, and single crystals of this compound were grown for the first time to the...

Description
Summary:The phase equilibria diagram of the BaMoO4–Bi2(MoO4)3 system has been studied. It was found that three phases BaMoO4, BaBi2(MoO4)4 and Bi2(MoO4)3 are formed in the system. The melting behavior of BaBi2(MoO4)4 was investigated, and single crystals of this compound were grown for the first time to the best of our knowledge. It was shown, that BaBi2(MoO4)4 is the promising active medium for conversion of laser radiation on the stimulated Raman scattering effect. [Display omitted] •Phase diagram of the BaMoO4-Bi2(MoO4)3 system was studied.•It was found that BaBi2(MoO4)4 melts incongruently.•BaBi2(MoO4)4 single crystals were grown from self-flux.•BaBi2(MoO4)4 found as good candidate for stimulated Raman scattering.
