摘要
The temperature dependence of the far-infrared reflectivity as obtained with a scanning interferometer for the A1- and E-type modes of both LiNbO3 and LiTaO3 is reported in the ferroelectric phase. Results of a Kramers-Kronig analysis are compared with Raman and neutron scattering data which are controversial about the existence of a soft vibrational mode. For LiTaO3, spectra are obtained 300 K above the Curie temperature, in the paraelectric phase. The lowest-frequency A1 (TO) mode is unambiguously found as soft and becomes rapidly overdamped. © 1979.
