Abstract

An approach using piezomodulated Raman scattering is presented which permits determination of the molecular motions associated with the eigenmodes of molecular crystals. When coupled with a lattice dynamical calculation for the eigenmodes, the experiment can be used to validate the calculation. The case of 1,2,4,5-tetrabromobenzene is treated and it is shown that the phase relations of the piezomodulated Raman signals confirm the calculated eigenmodes.
