Abstract
The single crystals of sodium carbonate borate(SCB) were grown by evaporation technique. The crystallinity of SCB was determined using powder XRD. The optical characteristics of SCB are investigated using UV-Vis spectral measurements. At 650 nm, a significant red emission was found in the SCB fluorescence spectrum. Microhardness testing was used to determine the sample's mechanical strength.
