Lattice dynamics and temperature dependence of the first-order Raman spectra for PbMoO4 crystal

The phonon dispersion carves for PbMoO4 crystal were calculated on the basis of a rigid-ion model. The first-order Raman spectra of A(g) mode PbMoO4 crystal were measured in a temperature range from 77 to 473 K. The temperature dependence of the linewidths was analyzed by using the phonon dispersion curves. and the results showed that it was caused approximately by the cubic anharmonic term in crystal potential energy. The temperature dependence of the frequency shin of the A(g) mode was analyzed by using the lattice dynamical perturbative treatment. We found that the quartic anharminic term of the first-order perturbation, as well as the cubic ter In of the second-order one contributes to the temperature dependence of the frequency shift of the A(g) mode in the PbMoO4 crystal.
