For the first time complete data are given on far-infrared reflectivity spectra of an ammonium dihydrogen phosphate single crystal in the temperature range 7 to 300 K, over the spectral region 15 to 400 cm-I, and for all crystallographic orientations of the crystal, in the para-and antiferroelectric phase. This study shows that although the crystal shatters when cooling through the phase transition, it preserves its crystallographic properties.Nous presentons les spectres de reflexion d'un monocristal de phosphate diacide d'ammonium dans I'infrarouge lointain (15 t~ 400 cm-l), entre 7 et 300 K, suivant toutes les directions cristallographiques dans les phases para-et antiferroBlectrique. Cette Btude montre Bgalement que, bien que detruit par 1e passage dans la phase antiferroblectrique, le cristal conserve ses propriBtBs cristallographiques.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
