Abstract
Dielectric and optical investigations of (NH4)4LiH3(SO4)4 and (NH4)4LiH3(SeO4)4 single crystals showed that these crystals are new ferroelastic below 233 K and 267 K respectively. X-ray studies demonstrated that above mentioned crystals are isomorphous with other representatives of Me4LiH3(XO4)4 family and undergo transition from paraelastic tetragonal (P41 or P43) to ferroelastic monoclinic (P21) phase.
