Abstract:
Enhancing anisotropy through an effective synergistic arrangement of anionic and cationic groups is crucial for improving the birefringence optical properties of materials. In this work, by transforming I-O into I-F through the fluorination strategy, two metal-free guanidine fluorooxoiodates (C(NH2)3)2(I2O5F)(IO3)(H2O) and C(NH2)3IO2F2 and one guanidine iodate C(NH2)3IO3 were successfully synthesized using the hydrothermal method. An unprecedented dimer [I2O5F] formed by [IO3F] and [IO3] in (C(NH2)3)2(I2O5F)(IO3)(H2O) was found, which greatly enriches the structural diversity of fluorooxoiodates. All three compounds feature a relatively large birefringence (Δn = 0.068, 0.110 and 0.075 at 546 nm) and a short ultraviolet cutoff edge. The theoretical calculation was carried out to understand the electronic structures and linear optical properties.
