Abstract
A Raman scattering study covering the entire substitution range of the FeSeS solid solution is presented. Data were taken as a function of sulfur concentration for , of temperature and of scattering symmetry. All type of excitations including phonons, spins and charges are analyzed in detail. It is observed that the energy and width of iron-related B phonon mode vary continuously across the entire range of sulfur substitution. The A chalcogenide mode disappears above and reappears at a much higher energy for . In a similar way the spectral features appearing at finite doping in A symmetry vary discontinuously. The magnetic excitation centered at approximately 500 cm disappears above where the A lattice excitations exhibit a discontinuous change in energy. The low-energy mode associated with fluctuations displays maximal intensity at the nemato-structural transition and thus tracks the phase boundary.
