M. Dlouha et al., THE STUDY OF STRUCTURAL FEATURES OF PHASE-TRANSITIONS IN N(H D)(4)SCN(THE MONOCLINIC PHASE) BY NEUTRON-SCATTERING/, Crystallography reports, 43(2), 1998, pp. 202-210
Protonated and deuterated ammonium thiocyanate has been studied by the
method of elastic and inelastic neutron scattering. The temperature d
ependences of the monoclinic unit-cell parameters are obtained; it is
shown that the parameter c increases when the temperature is lowered.
The temperature dependences of the monoclinic unit-cell parameters cha
nge their slope in the vicinity of 200 K, which, in accordance with th
e data on inelastic neutron scattering, can be associated with freezin
g of permutational reorientations of ammonium ions below 200 K.
