“…Our observations of systematic extra reflections shown in Fig. 2 contradict the generally accepted space group P6 3 /mmc for the hexagonal phase and Ccm2 1 for the orthorhombic phase, and, in this respect, confirm the observations reported earlier by Imani et al (2002) and Girard et al (2019). The clearly observed hhl reflections with l = 2n+1 are incompatible with the c-glide plane of the P6 3 /mmc space group, which was expected at T > T S = 240 K. Reflections of this type are also clearly visible in the 0kl section with l = 2n+1 in the 70-220 K temperature range, where the orthorhombic phase is expected.…”

“…Examples of atomic sites and the applied restrictions are available in the supporting information. The host-guest approach perfectly fits our diffraction experiments down to 150 K. It should be mentioned that the contribution of quasi-elastic scattering to the intensities of the extra reflections (Girard et al, 2019) cannot be excluded since their calculated intensities are systematically somewhat lower than those observed.…”

“…No noticeable structural changes have been detected for the magnetic transitions at T N = 31 K (Fagot et al, 2005). Although the hexagonal and orthorhombic symmetries have commonly been described by the space groups P6 3 /mmc and Ccm2 1 , respectively, observations of a series of extra X-ray diffraction reflections violate both of them (Inami et al, 2002;Girard et al, 2019). Some doubts with regard to these space-group attributions also arose from neutron diffraction studies (Ghedira et al, 1981).…”

A detailed synchrotron X-ray diffraction (XRD) study performed with a single crystal of BaVS3 (barium vanadium trisulfide) in the temperature range between 10 and 295 K is reported. Aside from the known tetragonal–orthorhombic (240 K) and orthorhombic–monoclinic (69 K) phase transitions, in the 130 < T ≤ 295 K range the overall structure can be viewed as a host–guest (H–G) composite. The BaS3 matrix is the host, while the V-chains form the guest. The two subsystems lock in at T LOCK = 130 ± 20 K. This temperature is marked by a symmetry change from orthorhombic to monoclinic. This results in the formation of twins, implying a structural phase transition identified here for the first time. From the refined structural data, it is possible to follow, starting already at 295 K downwards, the stepwise transformation of VS6 octahedra into VS5 tetragonal pyramids as the origin of the structure evolution. The new findings will yield a better understanding of the complex electronic phase diagram of BaVS3.

“…Recent combined Thermal Diffuse Scattering (TDS) and Inelastic X-ray Scattering (IXS) investigation of the BaVS 3 lattice dynamics across T S shows that the orthorhombic distortion is triggered by the softening of a Γ phonon 39 . In this work, we present an equivalent study of the metal-insulator Peierls transition.…”

Order-disorder type of Peierls instability in BaVS3

Lattice dynamics of low-dimensional BaVS3 is reported across the metal -insulator Peierls transition occurring at TP = 69 K using a combination of the thermal diffuse scattering TDS of x rays, inelastic x-ray scattering (IXS), and density functional theory calculations. The non detection of a Kohn anomaly points to a unique situation of an order-disorder Peierls instability with a quasielastic critical scattering which has been fully characterized. These observations are discussed in the scope of a Peierls instability dominated by strong electron-phonon coupling and/or non-adiabatic effects.

Order-disorder charge density wave instability in the kagome metal (Cs,Rb)V3Sb5

The origin of the charge density wave phases in the kagome metal compound AV3Sb5 is still under great scrutiny. Here, we combine diffuse and inelastic x-ray scattering to identify a 3-dimensional precursor of the charge order at the L point that condenses into a CDW through a first order phase transition. The quasi-elastic critical scattering indicates that the dominant contribution to the diffuse precursor is the elastic central peak without phonon softening. However, the inelastic spectra show a small broadening of the Einstein-type phonon mode on approaching TCDW. Our results point to the situation where the Fermi surface instability at the L point is of order-disorder type with critical growth of quasi-static domains. The experimental data indicate that the CDW consists on an alternating Star of David and trihexagonal distortions and its dynamics goes beyond the classical weak-coupling scenario and is discussed within strong-electron phonon coupling and non-adiabatic models.
