Abstract:
Infrared reflectivity spectra of TI3AsS4 single crystals are measured at room temperature in the wavenumber range from 30 to 4000 cm−1 for the polarization directions E‖ c and E ‖ a. An analysis of the spectra with the Kramers-Kronig method reveals 10 infrared active modes for each of the polarization directions. On the basis of theoretical estimates the modes due to TI-S and As–S bond vibrations are identified.
