Raman Scattering in the Inorganic Spin-Peierls System alpha'-Na_{1-delta}V_2O_5 (1998)
Kuroe, H., Seto, H., Sasaki, J., Sekine, T., Isobe, M., Ueda, Y.
We have studied the spin-Peierls (SP) transition in alpha'-Na_{1-delta}V_2O_5 (delta = 0, 0.01 and 0.1) by means of Raman scattering. At room temperature, we observe six A_1 and three A_2 phonon...
