Title: Raman scattering spectra of a superconducting Pb/sub 2/Sr/sub 2/Y/sub 0. 75/Ca/sub 0. 25/Cu/sub 3/O/sub 8+/delta// single crystal

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev. B: Condens. Matter; (United States)

Raman Spectra of a superconducting Pb/sub 2/Sr/sub 2/Y/sub 0.75/Ca/sub 0.25/Cu/sub 3/O/sub 8+/delta// single crystal (/ital T//sub /ital c///approx/20 K) have been measured at different temperatures between 10 and 300 K. Through their polarization properties, the Raman features observed at 90, 150, 240, 430, 480, and 570 cm/sup /minus/1/ are identified as the six /ital A//sub /ital g// modes, while the mode positioned at 325 cm/sup /minus/1/ has /ital B//sub 1/ital g// symmetry. The components of the Raman tensor for these phonons have been determined. The frequencies and assignments obtained here correlate well with lattice-dynamical calculations for Bi/sub 2/Sr/sub 2/CaCu/sub 2/O/sub 8/. The possible effect of the distortion of the oxygen atom from the ideal rocksalt-type structure of the PbO layers is discussed.
