Two novel noncentrosymmetric berates oxides, MBi2B2O7 or MBi2O(BO3)(2) (M=Ca, Sr), have been synthesized by solid-state reactions in air at temperatures in the 600-700 degrees C range. Their crystal structures have been determined ab initio and refined using powder neutron diffraction data. CaBi2B2O7 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pna2(1) space group with a = 8.9371(5)angstrom, b = 5.4771(3)angstrom, c = 12.5912(7) angstrom, Z = 4, R-wp = 0.118, chi(2) = 2.30, SrBi2B2O7 crystallizes in the hexagonal P6(3) space group with a = 9.1404(4) angstrom, c = 13.0808(6) angstrom, Z = 6, R-wp = 0.115, chi(2) = 4.15. Large displacement parameters suggest the presence of disorder in SrBi2B2O7 as also revealed by diffuse 2 x a superstructure reflections in electron diffraction patterns. Both structures are built of identical (001) neutral layers of corner-sharing BO3 triangles and MO6 trigonal prisms forming six-membered rings in which Bi2O groups are located. Adjacent layers are stacked in a staggered configuration and connected through weak Bi-O bonds. A moderate efficiency for second harmonic generation (SHG) has been measured for a powder sample of CaBi2B2O7 (d(eff) = 2d(eff)(KDP)). (c) 2006 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
