Abstract
Infrared spectra of sodalites from Vetralla and Bancroft are compared to simulated spectra calculated from the available structural data and from empirical force constants applied to a simplified part-central-force potential-energy model. Calculation gives 18 vibrational modes including the 370 cm-1 mode observed by other authors in Raman spectra only. Increasing Si-O stretching constant implies variation of 3 high-frequency modes. The band group in the 750-650 cm-1 region comprises 3 modes strongly influenced by fal-o and subordinately by fsi-al. The 4 modes in the 500-350 cm-1 region are influenced by fo-si-o with weak contribution of O-oscillation, while the 295 cm-1 band is strongly influenced by fo-o, fNa-o and fal-o © 1991 Accademia nazionale dei Lincei.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
