Description

Spectroscopic studies of some RNbO4 compounds (R = La, Ce, Nd, Gd, and Y) prepared by high-temperature solid-state reactions have been carried out at room temperature. Infrared spectra, laser Raman spectra, and vibrational data of monoclinic rare earth orthoniobates are shown and discussed. The Raman lines for Ag modes are used for checking the influence of rare earth cations on inorganic oxoanions. The influence of lanthanide cations on NbO43- anions was found to be remarkable
