摘要
Single-crystal, microcrystalline and nanocrystalline nickel oxides (NiO) have been studied by Raman spectroscopy. A new band at similar to 200 cm(-1) and TO-LO splitting of the band at 350-650 cm(-1) have been found in the spectra of single-crystals NiO(100), NiO(110) and NiO(111). The Raman spectra of microcrystalline (1500 nm) and nanocrystalline (13-100 nm) NiO resemble those of the single crystals. They all contain the two-magnon band at 1500 cm(-1), indicating that the oxides remain at room temperature in the antiferromagnetic phase. Besides, a new sharp Raman band has been observed at 500 cm(-1) in nanocrystalline NiO. Its temperature dependence suggests the magnetic origin of the band, possibly associated with the one-phonon-one-magnon excitation at the Brillouin zone centre.
