    Abstract:
    A new series of materials of the glaserite family with the general formula K(3)RE(VO(4))(2)(RE = Sc, Y, Dy, Ho, Er, Tm, Yb, and Lu) have been hydrothermally synthesized using 10 M K(2)CO(3) at 560 °C and characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction (XRD), powder XRD, differential thermal analysis/thermogravimetric analysis (DTA/TGA), energy-dispersion X-ray (EDX), Raman, infrared, and absorption spectroscopy. All the compounds crystallize in the trigonal P3̅m1 space group (No. 164), and their structures contain VO(4) tetrahedra, REO(6) octahedra, and two different K(1)O(10) and K(2)O(12) polyhedra. The spectroscopic properties of Nd(3+), Yb(3+), or Er(3+) doped K(3)RE(VO(4))(2) (RE = Y or Lu) are also reported, and the results obtained show that these compounds have promising potential as new laser host materials.
