ScholarBank@NUS Repository. https://doi.org/10.1016/0038-1098(95)00625-7 | Abstract: | The Raman spectrum of rubidium tribromostannate, RbSnBr3, has been measured as a function of temperature between 14 and 520 K. On cooling the RbSnBr3 crystal, the low-energy portion of the spectrum undergoes marked changes, suggesting the occurrence of a structural phase transition. A low-lying wing feature appears below 170 K, while the lowest-energy lattice band is found to soften from 19.6 cm-1 at 14 K to ca. 15 cm-1 at 140 K. The results are interpreted on the basis of a tin coordination of octahedral bromide ions. The phase transition is probably displacive in character and is associated with a rotation of the SnBr6 octahedra. | Source Title: | Solid State Communications | URI: | http://scholarbank.nus.edu.sg/handle/10635/92994 | ISSN: | 00381098 | DOI: | 10.1016/0038-1098(95)00625-7 |
