According to the group theory and selection rules of overtone and combinational modes, apart from the seven Raman modes that are from first-order Raman scattering, the remaining ones are attributed to being from second-order Raman scattering. A comparison between the experimental results and theoretical predictions shows that they are in satisfactory agreement with each other.

In our study, on heating, the 0.65PMN 0.35PT single crystal undergoes a rhombohedral → tetragonal → cubic phase transition sequence. The two phase transitions occur at 340 and 440 K, which correspond to the disappearance of the soft mode near 106 cm-1 recorded in VV polarization and the vanishing of the band around 780 cm^-1 in VH polarization, respectively.展开更多
