摘要
In this work, we report a novel polymorph of AgBiW2O8, which was synthesized by a simple arc melting method. The structural details of this compound were determined by X-ray powder diffraction, and elemental composition was confirmed with ICP-AES. beta-AgBiW2O8 adopts the scheelite structure type with tetragonal space group I4(1)/a and lattice parameters a = b = 5.3019(3) and c= 11.678(2) angstrom. Structural details and optical properties are discussed in detail. Diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (DRS) measurements of beta-AgBiW2O8 showed light absorption profile extended to the visible region, which suggests the material has a smaller band gap energy than Bi2WO6, as expected due to contribution of Ag d-orbitals to the electronic structure.
