Abstract

The range of possible combinations of the components of the electronic-polarizability tensors of oxygen and iodine ions and the effective charges of these ions is established on the basis of the experimental study of the parameters of the electric-field gradient tensor at 7Li nuclei in an α-LiIO3 crystal and the calculation of the electric-field gradient from the classical electrostatic model. The I-O bonds in α-LiIO3 are shown to be mixed ionic-covalent bonds with low ionicity. Spontaneous polarization of the crystal is estimated.
