Acoustic phonons and a central mode in the protonic conductorK3H(SeO4)2

Abstract: The dynamical properties of protonic conductor K 3 H͑SeO 4 ͒ 2 were examined by Brillouin scattering. Both longitudinal-acoustic modes ͑c 33 and c 11 ͒ and a transversal mode ͑c 44 ͒ monotonously depend on temperature, and no soft mode was observed. A central mode with a width about 6 GHz was observed above phase-transition temperature, T C . The central mode has a symmetry E g corresponding to the rotational mode of SeO 4 tetrahedra. The E g mode is compatible with a zone-boundary soft mode, L 3 , which accou… Show more

“…etc., possess high proton conductivity and have been broadly reported to have a superionic phase transition above 112 • C [42][43][44][45][46], encouraging the design of fuel cells that operate at temperatures above the normal boiling point of water. However, some inconsistencies have been found in the thermal and electrical behavior of members of the M 3 X(AO 4 ) 2 family [44,[47][48][49][50] and other families mentioned above.…”

“…However, some inconsistencies have been found in the thermal and electrical behavior of members of the M 3 X(AO 4 ) 2 family [44,[47][48][49][50] and other families mentioned above. Due to these inconsistencies, different physical and chemical points of view have attempted to explain the process that produces the fast ion conduction in M 3 X(AO 4 ) 2 acid salts [42,43,46,49,[51][52][53][54][55][56][57][58][59][60][61][62][63][64][65][66][67][68][69][70], as is the case of K 3 H(SeO 4 ) 2 (abbreviated as TKHSe). The superionic phase transition in TKHSe has been observed around T p (114 • C) by performing thermal and electrical studies under different experimental tests and conditions.…”

“…Conversely, Brillouin scattering spectroscopy is able to take the sound velocity measurement with no specimen contact and in a non-destructive manner [7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16]. Brillouin spectroscopy is almost the only method able to effectively measure the sound velocity in the specimen at high temperature [17][18][19][20][21].…”
