Decay mechanism of optical phonons in γ-CuI

Temperature-dependent frequencies and linewidths of transverse-optical (TO) and longitudinal-optical (LO) in γ–CuI were fitted according to the anharmonic phonon coupling theory. The results indicate that the asymmetric three-phonon and symmetric four-phonon processes are both responsible for the de...
