The primary goal of this review is to present a clear chemical perspective of borates in order
to stimulate and facilitate the discovery of new borate-based optical materials. These …

Conspectus Ages of history are defined by the underlying materials that promoted human
development: stone, bronze, and iron ages. Since the middle of the last century, humanity …

In the field of nitride phosphors, which are crucial for phosphor‐converted light‐emitting
diodes, mixed tetrahedral networks hold a significant position. With respect to the wide …

The influence of the microstructure on the ionic conductivity and cell performance is a topic
of broad scientific interest in solid-state batteries. The current understanding is that …

Besides temperature at one atmosphere, the applied pressure is another important
parameter for influencing and controlling reaction pathways and final reaction products. This …

Since the late 1950's, high-pressure structural studies have become increasingly frequent,
following the inception of opposed-anvil cells, development of efficient diffractometric …

The synthesis and functional characterization of dense bulk nanometric oxides are
reviewed, with particular emphasis on the modifications that a grain size in the low …

Oxonitridophosphates exhibit the potential for broad structural diversity, making them
promising host‐compounds in phosphor‐converted light‐emitting diode applications. The …

In this work, we present the synthesis, characterization, and optical properties of
Sr5Si7P2N16: Eu2+, the first tetrahedral (Si, P)–N network in which Si occupies more than …

The efficient green phosphor Ba3Si6O12N2: Eu2+ and its solid‐solution series Ba3−
xSrxSi6O12N2 (with x≈ 0.4 and 1) were synthesized in a radio‐frequency furnace under …
