Raman scattering in monocrystal Bi3B5O12

Abstract

Raman spectra of a Bi3B5O12 monocrystal are investigated for the first time and compared with the Raman spectra of crystals α-Bi2O3 and Bi12SiO20. The most intensive lines observed in the Raman spectrum of Bi3B5O12 are identified. Promising prospects of use of Bi3B5O12 crystals as SRS converters of radiation are shown.
