摘要

Raman spectra have been measured in polycrystalline samples of La0.5Sr0.5FeO3–δ and SrFeO2.5 antiferromagnetic orthoferrites in the orthorhombic and brownmillerite phases, respectively, in the temperature range of 300–700 K. A significant decrease in the intensity of the 1300–1400 cm–1 band when approaching the Néel temperature (TN ~ 410 K in the substituted orthoferrite La0.5Sr0.5FeO3–δ and TN ~ 670 K in the brownmillerite SrFeO2.5) indicates magnetic ordering in the crystals under normal conditions, and the band itself is due to two-magnon scattering, in contrast to the ~1100-cm–1 biphonon scattering band, which retains its intensity over the entire temperature range.
