CALCULATION OF THE DAMPING CONSTANT AND ACTIVATION ENERGY FOR RAMAN MODES IN (NH4)(2)SO4

2011-06-20
The temperature dependence of the damping constant is calculated for various Raman modes in (NH4)(2)SO4 by the expressions derived from the soft mode hard mode coupling model and the energy fluctuation model. The expressions for the damping constant are fitted to the measured Raman bandwidths and then the activation energies are extracted, which are equal to similar to 0.2 eV for the Raman modes studied. The damping constant of a soft mode is also calculated and the activation energy (similar to 0.1 eV) is deduced in this crystal. Values of the activation energies obtained here, can be compared with the value of k(B)T(C) = 0.02 eV for (NH4)(2)SO4. This indicates that this ferroelectric material undergoes an order disorder transition. It is concluded that the observed behaviour of (NH4)(2)SO4 can be described reasonably by the soft mode hard mode coupling model considered here.

CALCULATION OF THE RAMAN FREQUENCIES AT LOW PRESSURES AND TEMPERATURES (sigma-PHASE) SOLID NITROGEN
Yurtseven, Hasan Hamit (World Scientific Pub Co Pte Lt, 2013-09-20)
We calculate the Raman frequencies of the E-g mode and, the low and high frequency T-g mode as a function of temperature at a constant pressure of 2.85 kbar in the alpha-phase of solid nitrogen. The Raman frequencies of those lattice modes are calculated using the volume data from the literature at various temperatures (2.85 kbar) for the alpha-phase of solid N-2 through the mode Gruneisen parameter. Our predicted Raman frequencies can be compared with the experimental data and by this method the Raman freq...
Calculation of the tilt angle and susceptibility for the alpha-beta transition in quartz using a mean field model
Yurtseven, Hasan Hamit; Ates, S. (World Scientific Pub Co Pte Lt, 2017-03-30)
Tilt angle (order parameter) and the susceptibility are calculated as a function of temperature for the alpha-beta transition in quartz using a Landau phenomenological model. The tilt angle as obtained from the model is fitted to the experimental data from the literature and the temperature dependence of the tilt angle susceptibility is predicted close to the alpha-beta transition in quartz. Our results show that the mean field model explains the observed behavior of the alpha-beta phase transition in quart...
ANALYSIS OF THE FREQUENCY SHIFT AND THE LINEWIDTH AS A FUNCTION OF TEMPERATURE IN SOLID NITROGEN
KURT, MUSTAFA; Yurtseven, Hasan Hamit (World Scientific Pub Co Pte Lt, 2011-10-30)
The temperature dependence of the frequency shift and the linewidth is studied using the expressions derived from the anharmonic self-energy. The functional form of the frequency shift is fitted in this study to the experimental data for the R(1) fluorescence line of ruby sample as a function temperature at zero pressure, instead of using empirical nu-P and nu-T relations in the ruby fluorescence method as given in the literature, in particular, for the solid nitrogen. We also demonstrate in this study the ...

Yurtseven, Hasan Hamit (World Scientific Pub Co Pte Lt, 2016-02-20)
Analysis of the peak position and the linewidths of various infrared modes is performed at high (300-850 K) and low (1.5-300 K) temperatures using the experimental data from the literature for LiKSO4 which exhibits a sequence of phase transitions. The temperature dependences of the frequency and the linewidth which are derived from the anharmonic self-energy are fitted to the observed peak positions and the linewidths of the S-O stretching modes (internal nu(3) modes at 1135 cm(-1) and at 1180 cm(-1)), peak...
TEMPERATURE DEPENDENCE OF THE DAMPING CONSTANT CLOSE TO THE I-II PHASE TRANSITION IN s-TRIAZINE
Kavruk, D.; Yurtseven, Hasan Hamit (World Scientific Pub Co Pte Lt, 2010-01-30)
The damping constant is calculated here at various temperatures for the Raman mode II in s-triazine using the soft mode-hard mode coupling model. The temperature dependence of the order parameter is used as the input data to calculate the damping constant of the Raman mode studied in this coupling model for s-triazine close to the I-II transition (T-c = 198 K). The soft mode-hard mode coupling model which considers the coupling of the soft acoustic mode with the optic modes in s-triazine, is fitted to the o...
