ELECTRONIC STRUCTURE OF (B3O6) -3 CLUSTER AND ULTRAVIOLET ABSORPTION OF β-BaB2O4 CRYSTALS
-
Abstract
The electronic structure and the electric dipole matrix elements of (B3O6) -3 cluster are calculated by multiple scattering Xα(MSXα) method. The ultraviolet absorption of β-BaB2O4 crystal is determined from the above calculation, and the absorption edge (about 2000Å) thus estimated is in good agreement with the experimental measurement.
