Abstract
This paper reports a structural approach of phosphates with general formula ACaLn(PO4)(2), with A = K, Rb, Cs and Ln = rare earth, using infrared and Raman spectroscopy and Eu3+ as local structural probe. ne results permit us to decide which of the two possible space groups is valid for these materi als.
