Abstract
The energetics of lattice disordering in crystals with the LaF3 structure has been studied by Raman spectroscopy. Analysis of the width of Raman lines indicates that, for T < T c (in the dielectric phase of LaF3), the activation energy for anion disordering is E d ≃ 0.20 eV. This value agrees well with the 0.22 eV obtained as the difference between the energies of a fluoride ion in lattice and interstitial sites in a finite crystalline LaF3 cluster.
