Phase separation in iron chalcogenide superconductor Rb₀.₈₊xFe₁.₆₊ySe₂ as seen by Raman light scattering and band structure calculations

We report Raman light scattering in the phase separated superconducting single crystal Rb₀.₇₇Fe₁.₆₁Se₂ with Tc = 32 K over a wide temperature region 3–500 K. The observed phonon lines from the majority vacancy ordered Rb₂Fe₄Se₅ (245) antiferromagnetic phase with TN = 525 K demonstrate modest anomali...
