Raman, infrared and optical spectra of the spin-Peierls compound NaV2O5
Abstract
We have measured polarized spectra of Raman scattering, infrared and optical transmission of NaV2O5 single crystals above the temperature of the spin-Peierls transition Tsp=35 K. Some of the far-infrared (FIR) phonon lines are strongly asymmetric, due to the spin-phonon interaction. In addition to the phonon lines, a broad band was observed in the c(aa)c Raman spectrum and in the E||a FIR transmission spectrum. A possible origin of these bands is discussed. The absorption band at 10000 cm-1 1.25 eV is attributed to vanadium d-d electronic transitions while the absorption edge above 3 eV is supposed to correspond to the onset of charge-transfer transitions.
