Abstract:

Single crystals of rare-earth selenate-selenite of composition: Nd2(SeO4)2(SeO 3) (H2O) was obtained by interaction of amine-selenate monohydrate [NH3(CH2)2NH 2(CH2)2 NH2(CH2)2NH3 ]0.5[SeO4] .H2O with Nd3+ ions followed by hydrothermal processing at 150oC. The material crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21/c with the following cell parameters: a = 10.608(2), b = 13.951(3), c = 9.799(3)Å, â= 93.12(2)o. The infrared spectrum clearly shows the presence of coordinated water molecule. The absorption bands at 3508cm-1 and 3348cm-1 corresponds respectively to asymmetric and symmetric stretching vibrational modes of ligated water molecule. The absorption band at 1630cm-1 is attributed to the bending vibrational mode of the aqua ligand. The absorption bands at 878, 913 and 962cm-1 are assigned to õ(Se-O) vibrations. The material is stable up to 180oC. The first weight loss of 2.64% (Calc 2.56%) in the region 180-250oC is indicative of the removal of one molecule of coordinated water. The second weight loss of 16.66 %(Calc16. 23 %) in the region 600-650oC corresponds to the loss of SeO2.
