Abstract

The vibrational spectra of NaNH~4~SO~4~ · 2H~2~O (SASD) and its 5% deuterated system were observed in the region of the O–X and N–X stretches (X = H or D) over the temperature range 300–25 K. A similarity was found in the Raman spectral features associated with water molecules at room temperature and below T~c~, which were, however, different from those just above T~c~. A λ type of temperature dependence with a large wavenumber jump at T~c~ was found for the main Raman band at 3423 cm^−1^. This was explained qualitatively in terms of the strong correlation between the Raman mode and the order parameter. A similar result was observed for the decoupled OD modes. The analysis of their temperature dependence revealed characteristics of the phase transition mechanism in SASD. The λ type of temperature dependence was not found in decoupled modes associated with ammonium ions.
