Chalcogenide spinels show exceptional dielectric and magnetic properties, as e.g. large magnetoresistance and magnetocapacitive coupling. Using Raman scattering we study the excitations spectrum of these systems. Pronounced phonon and magnetic anomalies are observed that precede the long range ordered phases. Evidence for phase separation is observed. Work supported by ESF-HFM.
