Vibrational properties of hexagonal LiBC: Infrared and Raman spectroscopy
arXiv:cond-mat/0309066 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevB.68.220510
Abstract
The paper presents infrared reflectivity and micro-Raman scattering spectra of LiBC powder pellets. The experiment allowed assignment of frequencies of all infrared and Raman active zone center modes. Results are compared with available ab-initio calculations; prediction of large Born effective charges on the nodes of B-C graphene sheets is confirmed.
