Abstract
Correction for ‘K2MnF6 as a precursor for saturated red fluoride phosphors: the struggle for structural stability’ by Reinert Verstraete et al., J. Mater. Chem. C, 2017, 5, 10761–10769.
The authors wish to acknowledge the work performed by Bode and Wendt,1 Roisnel et al.2 and Palacio et al.3 on the structural characterization of K2MnF6, K2MnF5·H2O and KMnF4·H2O respectively, of which the crystal structures are shown in Fig. 1, 7 and 8 of the original article. In addition, the authors would like to cite the work of Hoppe and Wandner4 suggesting the role of trace impurities when evaluating the stability of K2MnF6 in air and describing the discoloration of the compound when in contact with glass.
The Royal Society of Chemistry apologises for these errors and any consequent inconvenience to authors and readers.
