Abstract

Abstract Molecular relaxation processes in lithium sulfate (Li2SO4), sodium sulfate (Na2SO4), and potassium sulfate (K2SO4) are studied using Raman spectroscopy (RS). The order parameter decreases in the low-temperature phase as it approaches the phase transition. For example, this is typical of a first-order phase transition close to a second-order phase transition. The existence of the pretransition region in the investigated sulfates Li2SO4, Na2SO4, and K2SO4 is proven.
