摘要
The detailed optical properties of BaFe2As2 have been determined over a wide frequency range above and below the structural and magnetic transition at T-N similar or equal to 138 K. A prominent in-plane infrared-active mode is observed at 253 cm(-1) (31.4 meV) at 295 K. The frequency of this vibration shifts discontinuously at T-N; for T < T-N the frequency of this mode displays almost no temperature dependence, yet it nearly doubles in intensity. This anomalous behavior appears to be a consequence of orbital ordering in the Fe-As layers.
