Abstract

Infrared-active phonons in LaMnO3+δ were studied by means of the reflection and transmission spectroscopy from 50 to 800cm-1 at room temperature. Powder and ceramic samples of the phases of Pnma-2(δ=0.02),Pnma-1(δ=0.08) and R3¯c(δ=0.15) were investigated. In addition, energies of the dipole-active phonons in Pnma-2, Pnma-1 phases were obtained by lattice-dynamics calculations. The transformations of IR-active phonons with the increase in δ in the sequence of Pnma-2, Pnma-1, R3¯c are discussed.
