Iodate nitrates are mixed anion compounds that contain both iodate and nitrate anions .
Giant birefringence [ edit ]
Iodate nitrates can have high birefringence . The scandium salt has a giant birefringence of 0.348 at 546 nm. When discovered in 2021 it was a record high birefringence for oxyanion compounds, but it was exceeded by CeF2 (SO4 ) just a month later with a value of 0.361[ 1] and sodium hydrogen squarate hydrate, NaHC4 O4 ·H2 O with a value of 0.52 at 1064 nm.[ 2] All of these are beaten by hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) with birefringence of 0.7 in visible light.[ 3]
