A new quaternary lanthanide alkaline-earth tellurium(IV) oxide, La{sub 2}Ba(Te{sub 3}O{sub 8})(TeO{sub 3}){sub 2}, has been prepared by the solid-state reaction and structurally characterized. The compound crystallizes in monoclinic space group C2/c with a=19.119(3), b=5.9923(5), c=13.2970(19) A, {beta}=107.646(8){sup o}, V=1451.7(3) A{sup 3} and Z=4. La{sub 2}Ba(Te{sub 3}O{sub 8})(TeO{sub 3}){sub 2} features a 3D network structure in which the cationic [La{sub 2}Ba(TeO{sub 3}){sub 2}]{sup 4+} layers are cross-linked by Te{sub 3}O{sub 8} {sup 4-} anions. Both band structure calculation by the DFT method and optical diffuse reflectance spectrum measurements indicate that La{sub 2}Ba(Te{sub 3}O{sub 8})(TeO{sub 3}){sub 2} is a wide band-gap semiconductor. - Graphical abstract: A new quaternary lanthanide alkaline-earth tellurium(IV) oxide, La{sub 2}Ba(Te{sub 3}O{sub 8})(TeO{sub 3}){sub 2}, has been prepared by the solid-state reaction and structurally characterized.
