Abstract
This paper reports polarized infrared and raman studies on zircon, zrsio4. The 36 k=0 modes of vibration are classified using group theoretical methods. The dielectric parameters epsilon minutes and epsilonseconds have been derived from the reflection spectrum using kramers-kronig theory. Measurements have also been made on the elements of the raman polarizability tensor, and the angular dependence of the scattered intensity has been studied for several bands. The crystal field splittings of the vibrational levels of the silicate ions are large, but some simple force constant considerations lead to the conclusion that the silicate ions are essentially molecular units.

Co-operative Jahn-Teller effects

TL;DR: The co-operative Jahn-Teller effect is a phase transition which is driven by the interaction between localized orbital electronic states and the crystal lattice as mentioned in this paper, and the possible origins, symmetries and properties of the electron-lattice interactions and how they lead to possible hamiltonians for the coupled system are discussed.
