Raman study of crystals
1997
In this work we present a polarized Raman study of single crystals for several values of the concentration made using different scattering geometries. The Raman spectra, composed of broad bands, have been fitted in accordance with a symmetry analysis which allowed us to assign the vibrational modes, and determine their frequencies and damping constants. The results are compatible with an average hexagonal symmetry for the solid solutions with x in the range . In each of the spectra we found two bands at about 590 and , probably associated with the existence of structures in the solid solutions.
Electrical conductivity and micro-Raman scattering studies of ionic conduction in Li1−xHxIO3 solid solutions
2002
Abstract Li 1− x H x IO 3 solid solutions have been investigated by ac electrical conductivity and micro-Raman techniques, for x ≤0.32. The presence of protons leads to a continuous reduction of the anisotropic intrinsic conduction of the system. The in-plane conduction mechanism would be by Li + vacancy hopping, while a mixed process by interstitial Li + and H + would account for the conduction along the c -axis. The solid solutions undergo the same phase transition sequence as the pure crystal, but the presence of the protons shifts the transition temperatures to lower values. Micro-Raman spectroscopy has been successfully introduced to demonstrate that proton mobility occurs preferential…
