Low-temperature softening of some Raman modes in BEDT-TTF and d{sub 8}-BEDT-TTF.

Journal Article · · Spectrochim. Acta, Part A
We report the temperature-dependent frequencies of the strong features in the Raman spectra of neutral BEDT-TTF and d{sub 8}-BEDT-TTF. We note an unusual softening of the features due to the modes involving the C-H vibrations in the terminal ethylene groups, as well as one mode involving the central double-bonded carbon atoms. We relate these softenings to the increased bending of the neutral molecule at low temperatures.
