Abstract: | Dielectric and Raman spectroscopic measurements have been performed to investigate the ferroelectric phase transition in . Single crystals were grown by the zone melting method. The frequency dependence of the dielectric permittivity from 1 MHz
to 1 GHz has been studied in a temperature range between 265 and 285 K. A Debye like dielectric dispersion was found, showing
a critical slowing down around K. Polarized Raman spectra have been taken between 220 and 310 K. Two softening modes have been found, one of A- and another one of B

g-symmetry. The phase transition mechanism in can be classified as partially order-disorder and partially displacive, confirming former structural results. It resembles
strongly that of monoclinic .
