Thortveitite-type Tm2Si2O7
Single crystals of dithulium disilicate, Tm2Si2O7, were obtained in flux synthesis experiments in the system SiO2–Tm2O3–LiF at ambient pressure. The compound belongs to the group of sorosilicates, i.e. it is based on [Si2O7]-units and crystallizes in the thortveitite (Sc2Si2O7) structure type. The T...
