Raman scattering in uniaxially oriented samples of planar zigzag poly(vinylidiene fluoride)

Abstract
Band assignments of phase‐I PVF2 have been Revised by using additional data obtained by laser Raman spectra of oriented samples. A set of least‐squares refined force constants was obtained which reproduce the experimental data to an average error in frequencies of 1.3 cm−1. In order to determine the effect of electrical polarization on the spectra, a Gaussian distribution of the dipole axis was assumed. The calculation shows that polarizations of less than 60% will not significantly affect the Raman spectra.
