The soft optic mode in ferroelastic Rb(4)LiH(3)(SO(4))(4).

چکیده
Raman scattering measurements were performed on the ferroelastic compound Rb(4)LiH(3)(SO(4))(4) to determine the nature of the structural transition observed at T(c) = 134 K. A double-grating spectrometer was used to obtain the Raman active B modes of Rb(4)LiH(3)(SO(4))(4). Back-scattering measurements, as a function of temperature, reveal that the 31 cm(-1) mode shows softening consistent with that of an order parameter. As a result, our investigation indicates that the structural transition in Rb(4)LiH(3)(SO(4))(4) should be cataloged as a pseudo-proper ferroelastic transition rather than a proper ferroelastic one.

Landau model for the elastic properties of the ferroelastic crystal Rb(4)LiH(3)(SO(4))(4).
Using sound velocity measurements, we report a detailed investigation of the elastic properties of Rb(4)LiH(3)(SO(4))(4) realized as a function of temperature and pressure. Results are compared to predictions of a phenomenological Landau model. Supported by recent Raman scattering measurements, we assume that the [Formula: see text] structural transformation observed at T(c) = 134 K corresponds...
متن کاملAbove-room-temperature ferroelastic phase transition in a perovskite-like compound [N(CH3)4][Cd(N3)3].
A new perovskite-like compound [N(CH3)4][Cd(N3)3] is reported here, which undergoes a series of reversible phase transitions including an above-room-temperature ferroelastic phase transition. An order-disorder mechanism is found in these structural transitions owing to the sway of the rod-like N3(-) bridges as well as the rotation of the tetrahedron-like [N(CH3)4](+) guests.
متن کاملEvery 4-Colorable Graph With Maximum Degree 4 Has an Equitable 4-Coloring
Chen, Lih, and Wu conjectured that for r ≥ 3, the only connected graphs with maximum degree at most r that are not equitably r-colorable are Kr,r (for odd r) and Kr+1. If true, this would be a joint strengthening of the Hajnal-Szemerédi Theorem and Brooks' Theorem. Chen, Lih, and Wu proved that their conjecture holds for r = 3. In this paper we study properties of the hypothetical minimum count...
متن کاملTemporal and spatial repetition blindness: effects of presentation mode and repetition lag on the perception of repeated items.
In this study, participants were asked to identify briefly presented 5-letter (Experiments 1-3) or 2-letter (Experiment 4) strings. Identical items in a repeated trial were identified worse than their counterparts in a nonrepeated trial, indicating repetition blindness (RB; N. G. Kanwisher, 1987). In Experiment 1, RB occurred regardless of whether items were presented successively or simultaneo...
متن کاملDeposited in DRO : 11
We report modulation transfer spectroscopy on the D2 transitions in Rb and Rb using a simple home-built electro-optic modulator (EOM). We show that both the gradient and amplitude of modulation transfer spectroscopy signals, for the Rb F = 2 → F ′ = 3 and the Rb F = 3 → F ′ = 4 transitions, can be significantly enhanced by expanding the beams, improving the signals for laser frequency stabiliza...
