Abstract

The perovskite fluoride crystals $K(Mg_{x}:Ni_{1-x})F_{3}, KCoF_{3}, KMnF_{3}$ and $RbMnF_{3}$ have been observed in transmission at low temperatures. Several bands of varying strengths were found at liquid helium temperature, and these have been attributed to impurities present in the samples. The stronger bands were also observed at liquid nitrogen temperature. These sharpen and shift to lower frequencies as the temperature is decreased. In $KNiF_{3}$ the band attributed to antiferromagnetic $resonance,^{1}$ at $49 cm^{-1}$, has been found to be incorrectly assigned. This band is also present in $KMgF_{3}$ at $53 cm^{-1}$ and shifts continuously at intermediate concentrations in the mixed crystals.
