Abstract :
Temperature dependence of FID signal emitted by AFM in NdFeO3 is investigated by employing THz time-domain spectroscopy. Our results reveal that Γ4→Γ24 phase transition occurs around T1=170 K, and both two phases have the same AFM resonant frequency of 0.485 THz. The frequency softening is observed for Γ24→Γ2 occurring around T2=110 K.
