The sample was obtained by coprecipitation using the silica gel method. As each carbonate crystal from this preparation showed the whole range of intermediate compositions BaxSr1-xCO3, 0.1≤x≤0.9, the solid solution could be studied for single crystals. Peak-shape analysis of the Raman bands showed that the peak shifts depend on the replacement of the Ba and Sr cations introducing different radii and masses. We observed a shift to higher wave numbers for an increase of the SrCO3 content.engAtribución-NoComercial-SinDerivadas 3.0 Españajournal articlehttps://doi.org/10.1080/00387010.2011.610409open access549.74535CarbonatesRaman spectroscopyReplacementSolid solutionWitherite–strontianiteMineralogía (Geología)2506.11 Mineralogía
