Raman and FTIR spectra of KMg1/3Nb2/3PO5 (KMNP) crystal are recorded. The observed bands are assigned mainly in terms of vibrations of NbO6 octahedra and PO4 tetrahedra. The NbO6 octahedra in the crystal are distorted. Corner shared octahedra are present in the KMNP structure. The intense ν1 band at 890 cm-1 in the Raman spectra indicates an ordering in the crystal. The TiO6 octahedra in KTP crystal are more distorted than those of NbO6 octahedra in KMNP. The presence of Mg ions disrupts Nb–O–Nb chains leading to a distortion of NbO6 octahedra different from that of TiO6 . The PO4 tetrahedra in the crystal are linearly distorted. No structural phase transition is observed in the crystal when temperature is lowered to 77 K.

Raman spectra of Ho[Formula: see text]NdxFe(BO3)4 ([Formula: see text], 0.75, 0.5, 0.25) have been studied in temperature range 10–400[Formula: see text]K. Two compositions ([Formula: see text], [Formula: see text]) demonstrate structural phase transition with soft mode restoration. The addition of Nd atoms increases interatomic spacing and decreases the temperature of structural phase transition. The solid solutions ([Formula: see text], 0.5, 0.25) demonstrate the emergence of the peaks corresponding to magnetoelastic interaction below Néel temperature. The order parameter of the magnetic phase transition has been determined. The equal concentrations of holmium and neodymium atoms prevent magnon soft modes condensation caused by exchange interactions in Fe–O–Fe chains are observed. Calculations confirm the data obtained in the experiment.

AbstractPressure-induced structural aspects of NaCl-type (B1) to CsCl-type (B2) structure in MgX [X = S, Se, Te] semiconductors are presented. An effective interionic interaction potential (EIOP) with long range Coulomb, van der Waals (vdW) interaction and the short-range repulsive interaction upto second-neighbor ions within the Hafemeister and Flygare approach is developed. Particular attention is devoted to evaluate the vdW coefficients following the variational method, as both the cation and the anion are polarizable. Our result on vast volume discontinuity in pressure volume phase diagram identifies the structural phase transition from B1 to B2 structure. The estimated value of the phase transition pressure (Pt) is consistent with results previously published. The variations of elastic constants with pressure follow a systematic trend identical to that observed in others compounds of NaCl type structure family.
