Single crystals of KEu(PO(3))(4), potassium europium(III) polyphosphate, were obtained by solid-state reactions. This monoclinic form is the second polymorph described for this composition and belongs to type IV of long-chain polyphosphates with general formula A(I)B(III)(PO(3))(4). It is isotypic with its KEr(PO(3))(4) and KDy(PO(3))(4) homologues. The crystal structure is built of infinite helical chains of corner-sharing PO(4) tetra-hedra with a repeating unit of eight tetra-hedra. These chai ...[more]
