VIN Phi(2)(TCNQ)(2) is a salt with two different, non-parallel TCNQ st
acks. The polarized reflectance spectra from single crystals in the IR
legion 660-5200 cm(-1), the powder absorption spectra 400-45000 cm(-1
) and FT-NIR Raman spectra of VIN Phi(2)(TCNQ)(2) are measured at room
temperature. Moreover, the temperature dependence of powder absorptio
n spectra in the frequency range 400-7900 cm(-1) are studied. The natu
re of electronic bands, the anisotropy of optical conductivity, the te
mperature dependence of some vibrational bands and the charge distribu
tion on different TCNQ stacks are discussed.
