Journal of Applied Spectroscopy Aims and scope

Abstract

Experimental and theoretical studies of the optical birefringence increment in the transition and metastable states of the incommensurate phase of Rb2ZnBr4, [N(CH3)4]2MeCl4 (Me = Zn, Cu, Fe) crystals have been made. It has been established that in the modulated structure field a defect density wave is formed. It has been shown that when the period of the defect density wave coincides with the period of the modulation wave, the region of existence of the metastable state expands; when the periods of these waves do not coincide, their superposition occurs, with the formation of a wave with a difference value of the modulation vector. The presence of defect density waves in the incommensurate phase leads to a temperature hysteresis and kinetics of the physical quantities in the vicinity of Tc.
