Abstract

AbstractA detailed temperature‐dependent Raman study of oriented single crystals of CdSiF6 · 6H2O down to 10 K was made in the region of internal vibrations and lattice modes. The frequency shifts, Iinewidths and intensities of some of the modes associated with the [Cd(OH2)6]2+ and (SiF6)2− ions show abrupt changes at temperatures around 220 K and some doubly degenerate modes split into two components. These studies suggest that the system undergoes a structural phase transition at ca. 220 K.
