Ma. Augustyniak et al., A NEW LOW-TEMPERATURE T(CR)=101-K PHASE-TRANSITION IN (NH4)3H(SEO4)2 EVIDENCED BY SINGLE-CRYSTAL ESR, Ferroelectrics. Letters section, 15(3-4), 1993, pp. 69-72
Temperature ESR measurements on SeO3--radicals in (NH4)3H(SeO4)2 singl
e crystals disclosed new ESR anomalies at T = 101 K. Below this temper
ature the hyperfine splitting becomes to be temperature averaged, ESR
linewidth shows motional narrowing and an anomaly in forbidden transit
ion intensity is observed. Also the dielectric measurements show an an
omaly of the epsilon at this temperature. We suggest an existence of a
new crystal phase VI below T(cr) = 101 K with NH4-groups ordering and
slow SeO4-group dynamics.
