1.
Study of the infrared spectra of the oxide orthosilicates of the rare earth metals Ln2(SiO4)O makes it possible to divide these compounds into three groups in accordance with the existence of three structural types.
2.
Bands for the vibrations of Ln-O-Ln bonds involving “oxide ions” O2− have been identified in the spectra of some of the oxide orthosilicates. These bands are partly covalent and their covalent character increases with decrease in the basic strength of the cations in the series La→Lu (and La→Y→Sc).
3.
The suggestion that the coordination of the Ln3+ ions is different in the three structural types of oxide orthosilicate agrees with the results of the study of the phase diagrams for systems of the type (Ln′ Ln″)2(SiO4)O. The ability of compounds lying close to the “boundary” between two groups to crystallize under the influence of small quantities of additives with the structure of the neighboring group, also confirms this suggestion.
4.
Comparison of the changes in structure (coordination of the cations) with change in the ionic radius of the rare earth metal cations in the pyrosilicate and oxide orthosilicate series indicates that the magnitude of the effective radius of the cation is smaller in the latter group of compounds. This difference is attributed to the stronger electron-accepting power of the O2− anions and the partial covalent character of the bonds which it forms with the cations.
