Abstract
The high pressure-temperature quenched phase of KTb(MoO4)2 with the β-KY(WO4)2-type structure was synthesized and investigated by Raman scattering under pressure up to 26 GPa. The Raman spectral features were analyzed in terms of the structural units, in particular the MoO6 polyhedra and the Mo-O bond lengths, by relating the structure of the phase with that of the β-KY(WO4)2. It is suggested that two types of MoO6 groups may be present to account for the calculated Mo-O bond lengths. No pressure-induced phase transition is found up to 26 GPa. The Tb fluorescence is totally absent in the quenched phase and reappears on heating to 500°C, when the conversion of the material to the original orthorhombic phase of KTMO takes place.
