We reported the investigating results of the phase transition and phase str
ucture for LaSc3(BO3)(4) crystal. LaSc3(BO3)(4) crystal exist three phases:
high temperature phase alpha-LaSc3(BO3)(4) with space group C2/c, medium t
emperature phase beta-LaSc3(BO3)(4) with space group R32 and low temperatur
e phase gamma-LaSc3(BO3)(4) with space group Cc. Title compound gamma-LaSc3
(BO3)(4) crystallizes in the monoclinic with space group Cc, and the unit c
ell dimensions, a=7.740(3) Angstrom, b=9.864(2) Angstrom, c=12.066(5) Angst
