The infrared spectra of the metaborate monomer and trimer
ions in NaC1, KC1, and KBr were studied. These spectra contain
bands due to the trimer in solid solution, in a second phase of the appropriate
potassium or sodium salt, and perhaps on adjacent lattice
sites. Furthermore, complex equilibria exist between...
The investigation
of impurity effects on the properties of alkali
halide crystals has often been difficult because of the variation of procedures used in various experiments.
The purpose of this work is to
develop a self consistent method of measuring the IV dipole polarization properties of single crystals while eliminating...
