It is shown that the crystal structures of the binary IV-VI compounds can be classified by parameters derived from a Pauli-force model potential, which has previously been used successfully for the octet and suboctet materials (A N B P-N with P=8 and 2<or=P<or=6). Trends in the transverse effective charges, in the hea…

The complex dielectric constant ϵ = ϵ′– jϵ″ of single crystals of squaric acid C4H2O4(H2SQ) was examined at around 100 MHz and between 2 and 8 GHz as a function of temperature. In the GHz range the imaginary part ϵ″ can be well described by the beginning of a monodispersive relaxation, whose relaxation frequency slows…

The anomalous photovoltaic effect referred to here is obtained fro crystals without a centre of symmetry. The spatially oscillatory photovoltaic current is investigated and the photovoltaic coefficients kijk for SbSI and ZnS determined. These coefficients are k31 = 4 × 10−8 Acm/W, k32 = 3 × 10−8 Acm/W, and k33 = (2 to…

The valence states of Fe and the charge compensation by oxygen vacancies of Fe57-doped BaTiO3 are studied by the Mössbauer effect and gravimetry as a function of O2 partial pressure. By preparational and analytical effort, it is ensured that the dopant homogeneously substitutes Ti4+ in the BaTiO3 lattice (up to 1.2 mo…

The perovskites Pb(Sc1/2Nb1/2)O3 and Pb(Sc1/2Ta1/2)O3 can be obtained in a disordered state by means of a synthesis at high temperature (1250 to 1500°C). Ordering of the trivalent and pentavalent ions occurs during annealing at lower temperatures. The kinetics of this ordering process are investigated by means of X-ra…

By modifying the surface plasma mode on a bare metal surface with an ultrathin film deposited on the metal, we measured the film thickness by attenuated total reflection (ATR). Various factors causing measurement errors are estimated with numerical examples. As a result, for example, it is shown that for some thicknes…

The vibrational averaging theory of Kern and Matcha is extended, at the harmonic level of approximation, to the case where the molecular property under investigation can itself lead indirectly to a perturbation of the vibrational levels of the molecule. It is found that contributions arising from this perturbation can…
