Abstract: | Brillouin scattering is used to study concentration and temperature dependence of transverse acoustic phonon frequency ωTA (110) in (KCN)x(KBr)1?x mixed crystals. Unlike pure KCN, mixed xrystals with x < 0.75 show no phase transition upon cooling, however, in these crystals we find a minimum in ωTA as a function of temperature. This minimum can be understood in terms of dynamical theory of rotation-translation coupling in molecular crystals. |
