Experimental Studies of Structural Phase Transitions in CsPbCl_3

概要

論文の詳細を見る
Some experimental investigations have been made in order to understand the nature of phase transitions in the perovskite-type crystal CsPbCl_3. Measurements of the birefringence and conoscopic observations confirm three phase transitions occurring at 37℃, 42℃ and 47℃, respectively. The crystal system in each phase and the superstructure below 37℃ are determined from the results of these measurements and an X-ray work. A dielectric measurement shows that CsPbCl_3 is neither ferroelectric nor antiferroelectric in any of the phases. The transition entropies estimated from the result of a specific heat measurement sre considerably smaller than that reported by Mφller. The elastic compliance measured by the method of composite oscillator shows anomaly at each transition point. Temperature-dependent Raman spectra demonstrate the existence of "soft" modes which are overdamped near the transition temperatures. The nature of these phase transitions is discussed on the basis of the ecperimental results.
