摘要:
Low temperature X-ray diffraction study for organic semiconductor (BEDT-TTF)(3)CuBr4 revealed structural phase transition from P2(1)/c to Pc by losing inversion and screw symmetries at 60.2 K where the magnetic susceptibility shows a steep decrease. Abrupt changes in (0k0) X-ray reflection intensity and lattice parameters proved that this phase transition has first-order nature. Structure analysis at 65.9 K verified that the average coordination number of Br around Cu is four. Copyright (C) 1996 Elsevier Science Ltd
