Abstract

Abstract The NMR spectra of 7Li and 14N nuclei in LiNH4SO4 crystals were obtained near the phase transition temperature TC2=284.5 K. Below TC2, the two physically inequivalent Li groups in phase III were distinguished in 7Li NMR spectra. Meanwhile, the 14N NMR spectra in phase II above TC2 showed four pairs of lines, where as those in phase III showed eight pairs. These changes in the resonance frequencies near TC2 were attributed to the structural phase transition. The 7Li and 14N nuclei in the structure are coordinated through the Li–O–H–N skeleton. Therefore, changes in their NMR spectra with temperature are correlated. The displacements of 7Li and 14N in LiNH4SO4 crystals play important roles in the phase transition near TC2.
