Abstract
The monoclinic-orthorhombic phase transition in Ba2Cu(HCOO)6 crystals,
which takes place when the temperature is raised from 300 to 317 K, was
analysed in the light of Raman scattering measurements. The
disappearance of two modes related to HCOO vibrations is interpreted as
the signature of phase transformation which is characterized by slight
modifications in the atomic positions of HCOO in the unit cell. For the
sake of completeness, we also show the evolution of the Raman spectrum
from 50 to 300 K, where no phase transformation is observed. Copyright
