Abstract

Raman signals given by single crystals of ferroelectric KIO3 are strongly dependent on the directions of phonon-propagation. The anti-Stokes frequencies, measured using different experimental arrangements, are correlated with the optical indicatrix. The ferroelectric phase transitions at 72.5°C and 212°C are accompanied by a “soft-mode” behaviour of some transversal modes, as predicted earlier. The temperature dependencies of the valence constants of I–O and K–O bonds thus calculated, show that the biggest differences in the bond energies of the ferroelectric β and γ phases must be attributed to K–O interaction. Moreover, the bonds of the IO6-complex are weakened during the transition in the high-temperature phase. The interatomic distances, estimated using the method of central-field approximation and the coordinates of normal modes given by Salje (1973), agree with the structural data. The phonon spectra of the phases α, β, and γ are compatible with the point group symmetries R[unk]m, Pm and P 1 with 2, 4 and 4 molecules in their respective unit cell. A decrease in the scattering frequencies is observed in Raman experiments in which a small quasi-momentum transfer is involved. This is due to polariton dispersion. The coupling parameters, calculated using polariton frequencies, indicate strong photon-phonon interactions for all wave vectors near the origin of the Brillouin zone.
