Popis: | The low-temperature lattice dynamics of K 1- x (NH 4 ) x H 2 PO 4 mixed crystals have been studied using high-resolution inelastic-neutron-scattering on powders for x =0.0; 0.06; 0.1; 0.18; 0.3; 0.6 and 0.9. The influence of ammonium ion concentration on the hydrogen dynamics has been analysed. The mean square displacements of hydrogen bonded acid protons are found to be larger in the glass phase than in the ordered ferroelectric or antiferroelectric phases. It was found that a vibrational mode at 16.8 meV is strongly coupled with the ferroelectric modes. \sloppy |
