Asymmetric peaks were observed for both undoped and doped crystals, a characteristic of perfect crystals. X-ray powder diffraction at room temperature and analysis by Rietveld refinement were also performed, showing that doped KDP has the same tetragonal structure as undoped KDP, but with contraction of the lattice parameter for 100, 010, and 001 directions. The polarized Raman spectra of KDP and KDP:Mn were obtained for temperatures in the range 10-300 K. Some of the features observed in the spectra were interpreted as consequences of phase transitions. Although group theory analysis shows that both doped and undoped crystals have the same symmetry at room temperature, at low temperature they have different symmetries: a previously reported phase transition for KDP at 60 K was not observed for KDP:Mn.
