Raman Spectroscopy Investigation of the Polar Vibrational Modes in CuB2O4

چکیده
We report results of polarized Raman spectroscopy of piezoelectric copper metaborate CuB2O4 (space group I ̄42d, Z = 12) in the range from 80 to 1300 cm−1. Due to the dense population of the phonon spectra we carried out angular-dependent measurements by rotating the sample in different crystallographic planes thus performing gradual transitions from one polarization configuration to another. The different angular dependence of the scattering intensities of vibrational modes of different symmetries allowed us to obtain Raman signal from some transversal optical (TO) modes of E-symmetry and to demonstrate the singlemode behavior of the B2 modes by means of transition from TO character to longitudinal optical (LO) character of these phonons.

Copper metaborate CuB2O4 is a material with a unique crystallographic structure, space group 42m (Z=12), in which magnetic Cu ions occupy two types of nonequivalent positions 4b and 8d. Below the antiferromagnetic ordering at TN = 21 K this material demonstrates a very complicated magnetic phase diagram with commensurate and incommensurate phases [1]. This material also demonstrates very intere...

Structure, dynamics, and coupling involving single-molecules determine function in catalytic, electronic or biological systems. While vibrational spectroscopy provides insight into molecular structure, rapid fluctuations blur the molecular trajectory even in single-molecule spectroscopy, analogous to spatial averaging in measuring large ensembles. To gain insight into intramolecular coupling, s...
