Raman spectra of anhydrous crystalline samples of all of the lanthanide orthophosphates (with the exception of PmP04) have been obtained. These data were interpreted in a systematic manner based on the known structures of these compounds. Assignments and correlations have been made for many of the observed bands.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
