Zv. Popovic et al., PHONONS IN CUGEO3 STUDIED USING POLARIZED FAR-INFRARED AND RAMAN-SCATTERING SPECTROSCOPIES, Physical review. B, Condensed matter, 52(6), 1995, pp. 4185-4190
Optical phonons in CuGeO3 were studied using polarized far-infrared an
d Raman-scattering spectroscopies. The frequencies of the infrared-act
ive modes are determined using an oscillator-fitting procedure of refl
ectivity data. All infrared and Raman active modes, predicted by facto
r-group analysis, were observed. The assignment of the observed phonon
s is given according to Cartesian symmetry coordinates as well as prel
iminary lattice dynamical calculations on the basis of a shell model.
