A low frequency Raman-active vibration of hexagonal boron nitride

  • 1. National Inst. for Researches in Inorganic Materials, Sakura, Ibaraki (Japan)

Description

Raman spectra of single crystals and powder of hexagonal boron nitride have been measured at room temperature. Two Raman lines due to phonons of 52.5 and 1366 cm-1 were observed. The 52.5 cm-1 line, observed for the first time, has been attributed to the shear-type rigid layer mode of the crystal. The force constants related with the vibrations of these modes and their anisotropy are compared with those of graphite. (author)
