Temperature dependent phonon modes and ionicity of LiGaO2 single crystal

This paper reports that polarized far-infrared reflectivity measurements have been done on LiGaO2 single crystal along two crystalline taxes at different temperatures. The temperature dependent frequencies of the longitudinal and transverse optical phonon have been obtained from the real part of optical conductivity and the loss function respectively. A small Drude component is observed at frequency below 300 cm^-1 which could arise from Li ions or oxygen deficiencies. The ionicity of LiGaO2 has been studied from the analysis of the Born effective charge of different ions.

Infrared active phonon modes and ionicity of single crystal MgAl2O4

Near-normal incident infrared reflectivity spectra of （100） MgAl2O4 spinel single crystal have been measured at different temperatures in the frequency region between 50 and 6000 cm^-1. Eight infrared-active phonon modes are identified, which are fitted with the factorized form of the dielectric function. The dielectric property and optical conductivity of the MgAl2O4 crystal are analysed. From TO/LO splitting, the effective Szigeti charges and Born effective charges at different temperatures are calculated for studying the ionicity and the effect of polarization. Based on the relationship between the （LO-TO）1 splitting, which represents the transverse and longitudinal frequencies splitting of the highest energy phonon band in the reflectivity spectrum, and the ionic-covalent parameter, the four main phonon modes are assigned. MgA1204 can be considered as a pure ionic crystal and its optical characters do not change with decreasing temperature, so it may be used as a suitable substrate for high-Tc superconducting thin films.     

La0.33Pr0.34Ca0.33MnO3薄膜的应变效应

采用脉冲激光沉积法分别在(100)LaAlO3和(100)SrTiO3基片上生长了La0.33Pr0.34Ca0.33MnO3 薄膜,并通过磁测量和电输运测量对生长在不同基片上的La0.33Pr0.34Ca0.33MnO3薄膜的物性进行了研究.结果表明,基片和薄膜之间的压应力导致La0.33Pr0.34Ca0.33MnO3薄膜容易出现铁磁相,而电荷有序相则被抑制.基片和薄膜之间的张应力则导致La0.33Pr0.34Ca0.33MnO3薄膜容易出现电荷有序相,铁磁相被抑制.导致该现象的可能原因之一是应力使得晶格中Mn-O键角发生改变而引起双交换作用的改变.
