Abstract
The local structure of CH3NH3I around the I- ion in Phase α' and δ was studied by iodine K-edge EXAFS. The crystal structure in Phase α' was redetermined by single crystal X-ray diffraction. The Debye-Waller factor σ(2) derived from EXAFS spectra shows an anomalous behavior around the order-disorder transition temperature from Phase δ to α'. The phase transition has been interpreted as the disordering process which involves not only the H atoms but also the C atoms in the cation.
