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 P3121, and the refined unit cell parameters are a =
7.056(3) Å, c = 6.898(1) Å, and Z = 3. It is isostructural with SrBPO5. FTIR and Raman investigation of this
compound were done for the first time in this study.

Keywords: Boroarsenates, SrBAsO5 arsenate compounds, FTIR, Raman spectroscopy, XRD.
