Abstract
In this study, SrBAsO5 was synthesized by a solid state reaction using SrCO3, As2O5, and H3BO3 as reported before. The x-ray powder diffraction, FTIR, and Raman data were in agreement with the reported crystal structure. It crystallizes in a hexagonal system in P3(1)21, and the refined unit cell parameters are a = 7.056(3) angstrom, c = 6.898(1) angstrom, and Z = 3. It is isostructural with SrBPO5. FTIR and Raman investigation of this compound were done for the first time in this study.
