Title

Diffuse scattering and critical dynamics in alkali metal nitrates

Abstract

Alkali metal nitrates are examples of rare materials having symmetry-breaking structural phase transitions that give rise to polarity and chirality at the same time. These phase transitions are associated with the onset of a peculiar three-dimensional chiral modulation of the orientation of the NO3 groups. We aim to trace a dynamical signature of their pretransitional correlations in the RbNO3 single crystal in order to clarify the mechanism of this transition.
