Single crystals of RbK(SO4)·Te(OH)6 are obtained by slow evaporation at room temperature. The frequency and temperature dependencies of the real part of the permittivity, r′, show that this material presents three phase transitions at T1 = 490 K, T2 = 535 K and T3 = 580 K. DSC measurements on RbK(SO4)·Te(OH)6 have been carried out in the temperature ranges 350–650 K. It reveal three endothermic peaks at around T1, T2 and T3. Complex impedance measurements are performed on this material at various temperatures. A substantial jump of the conductivity, attributed to the motion of H+, is observed at high temperatures. This behavior indicates the presence of superprotonic phase transition in RbK(SO4)·Te(OH)6. Raman spectra of RbK(SO4)·Te(OH)6, recorded at various temperatures (300–550 K) in the frequency range 200–1200 cm−1, confirm the presence of the phase transitions and especially the ferroelectric and the superprotonic phase transition.Read less <
