The thermal expansion of the C15 Laves-phase material TaV2H x was measured over the temperature range of 130–350?K for x?=?0, 0.34 and 0.53. A primary objective of the study was to see if the anomalous temperature dependence of elastic constants found in an earlier study is due to, or associated with, unusual thermal expansion. The expansion was typical of transition metals, and quite close to theoretical results for related Laves-phase materials. Grüneisen parameters were determined from the measurements, and these were also typical of transition metals, and close to calculated values for related materials. Both the thermal expansion and the Grüneisen parameters of TaV2 decreased somewhat with the addition of hydrogen. No anomalous behavior of the expansion was found that might account for the highly anomalous temperature dependence of elastic moduli reported earlier. This absence is consistent with the attribution of the elastic constant behavior to an electronic structure effect. 相似文献

Elastic properties, thermal expansion coefficients and electronic structures of Ti0.75X0.25C carbides (X=W, Mo, Ta, Nb, V, Hf, Zr, Cr and Al) were systematically investigated using ab initio density functional theory (DFT) calculations. The calculated elastic moduli, electronic structures and thermal expansion coefficients α(T) of pure TiC are in good agreement with experimental data and other DFT calculations. Based on a phenomenological formula, the trends of elastic properties and ductile/brittle behavior of Ti0.75X0.25C were analyzed. It was found that alloying elements W, Mo, Ta, Nb, V and Hf can increase elastic moduli, while Zr, Cr and Al reduce moduli. The nearly free electron model and Debye approximation were applied in the evaluation of α(T). The anharmonic effect was taken into account by including volume-dependent elastic moduli and Debye temperature. Results show that alloying additions of 3d V, 4d Zr and Mo slightly reduce α(T), while 3d Cr increases α(T), Al, 4d Nb, 5d Hf and W almost keep α(T) unchanged in Ti0.75X0.25C at high temperatures. The electronic structures of Ti0.75X0.25C were calculated and analyzed, and the electronic density of states was used to interpret variations of elastic properties and ductile/brittle behavior induced by alloying additions. 相似文献

Structural, elastic, electronic and thermal properties of the MAX phase Nb2SiC are studied by means of a pseudo-potential plane-wave method based on the density functional theory. The optimized zero pressure geometrical parameters are in good agreement with the available theoretical data. The effect of high pressure, up to 40 GPa, on the lattice constants shows that the contractions along the c-axis were higher than those along the a-axis. The elastic constants Cij and elastic wave velocities are calculated for monocrystal Nb2SiC. Numerical estimations of the bulk modulus, shear modulus, Young’s modulus, Poisson’s ratio, average sound velocity and Debye temperature for ideal polycrystalline Nb2SiC aggregates are performed in the framework of the Voigt-Reuss-Hill approximation. The band structure shows that Nb2SiC is an electrical conductor. The analysis of the atomic site projected densities and the charge density distribution shows that the bonding is of covalent-ionic nature with the presence of metallic character. The density of states at Fermi level is dictated by the niobium d states; Si element has a little effect. Thermal effects on some macroscopic properties of Nb2SiC are predicted using the quasi-harmonic Debye model, in which the lattice vibrations are taken into account. The variations of the primitive cell volume, volume expansion coefficient, bulk modulus, heat capacity and Debye temperature with pressure and temperature in the ranges of 0-40 GPa and 0-2000 K are obtained successfully. 相似文献

The thermal diffusivities of UC1 ? xNx of several compositions were measured from 100 to 1000 °K by a laser flash method. The thermal conductivity was separated into electronic and phonon components by assuming the constant Lorenz number. The phonon conductivity showed an anomalous behaviour against composition at low temperatures. The total thermal conductivity of UC1 ? xNx showed a minimum above 300 °K at an intermediate composition which moved to higher carbon content with increasing temperature. This behaviour was explained by the temperature dependence of the lattice and electronic components. 相似文献

The elastic constants and thermodynamic properties of Li2O for high temperatures and pressures are calculated by the ab initio unrestricted Hartree-Fock (HF) linear combination of atomic orbital (LCAO) periodic approach. The lattice constant, elastic constants, Debye temperature, and thermal expansion coefficient obtained are in good agreement with the available experimental data and other theoretical results. It is found that at zero pressure the elastic constants C11, C12 and C44, bulk modulus B and Debye temperature ΘD decrease monotonically over the wide range of temperatures from 0 to 1100 K. When the temperature , C12 approaches zero, consistently with the transition temperature 1200 K. However, with increasing pressure, they all increase monotonically and the anisotropy will weaken. 相似文献

The structural, elastic, electronic, optical and thermal properties of the semiconductor perovskite CsPbCl3 were investigated using the pseudo-potential plane wave (PP-PW) scheme in the frame of generalized gradient approximation (GGA) and local density approximation (LDA). The computed lattice constant agrees reasonably with experimental and theoretical ones. The CsPbCl3 crystal behaves as ductile material. The valence bands are separated from the conduction bands by a direct band gap R-R. We distinguished hybridization between Pb-p states and Cl-p states in the valence bonding region. Under compression at P=30 GPa, this material will have a metallic character. The thermal effect on the lattice constant, bulk modulus, Debye temperature and heat capacity CV was predicted using the quasi-harmonic Debye model. To the author's knowledge, most of the studied properties are reported for the first time. 相似文献

The thermodynamic properties of the spinel ferromagnetic compounds CdCr2Se4 and CdCr2S4 have been investigated by making heat capacity and thermal expansion measurements on single crystals. For both compounds, the ferromagnetic transition is marked by λ-type thermal anomalies, and the results provide a pressure dependence of the transition temperatures that is in agreement with direct measurements. Below the transition, CdCr2S4 shows an anomalous heat-capacity contribution and negative thermal expansion, which are in contrast to the conventional behavior found in CdCr2Se4. 相似文献

Cd1−xMnxTe thin films were fabricated by thermal interdiffusion of multilayers of sputtered compound semiconductors as well as thermally evaporated elements. Electron microscopy revealed their nanostructures. The alloys have been investigated for evaluation of optical and electronic parameters. Spectrophotometry helped to find out the bandgap and composition; photoluminescence was used for observing relative transition probabilities at room temperature. Photoresponse showed the light dependence of the resistance of the alloy films. Hall measurements and four-probe tests indicated the influence of manganese on the room-temperature electronic properties of the alloy. 相似文献

Measurements of the thermal expansion and elastic constant C33 of single crystal 50% TbHo near the Néel temperature (TN) indicates that TN increases with the increase in internal strain in the sample. After repeated thermal cycling or direct straining of the sample this effect on TN is irreversible. 相似文献

The compound (Me4P)2ZnBr4, a member of the β-K2SO4 structure class, undergoes a phase transition at 84°C from the room temperature space group P121/c1 to the parent Pmcn structure. The room temperature structure corresponds to a ferrodistortive transition of B1g symmetry at the zone center. At room temperature, the compound has lattice constants a=9.501(1), b=16.055(2), c=13.127(2) Å and β=90.43(1)°. For the high temperature phase, the orthorhombic cell has dimensions a=9.466(2), b=16.351(3) and c=13.284(2) Å. The structures consist of two crystallographically independent Me4P+ cations and the ZnBr42− anions. In the room temperature phase, all three ionic species show substantial displacement from the mirror plane perpendicular to the a-axis that exists in the high temperature phase, as well as rotations out of that plane. The thermal parameters of the cations are indicative of substantial librational motion. Measurements of lattice parameters have been made at 2-5°C intervals over the temperature range 40-140°C. The changes in the lattice constants appear continuous at Tc (within experimental limits) indicating that the phase transition is likely second-order. The a lattice constant shows an anomalous shortening as Tc is approached. Thermal expansion coefficients are calculated from this data. An application of Landau theory is used to derive the temperature dependencies of spontaneous shear strain and corresponding elastic stiffness constants associated with the primary order parameter. 相似文献

The rhombohedral lattice parameters of pure V2O3 show anomalous behaviour in the high temperature region. The change in the rate of expansion of the rhombohedral angle αR occurs at 533 K where the lattice constant aR reaches a minimum. The sharp dip at 533 K in the aR curve can be correlated with the peak observed in recent small angle scattering of neutrons and might be due to some dynamic magneto elastic effect. 相似文献

The thermal expansion behavior of sintered samples of Gd1−xSrxMnO3 (X = 0.0–0.4) was studied. The sintered bodies in this system showed negative thermal expansion over a wide temperature range. The detailed crystal structure refinements with respect to temperature showed that the volume of the orthorhombic perovskite lattice monotonically increased with temperature, however, in addition to this, the release of distortion from the Jahn-Teller effect of Mn3+ ion occurred over a wide temperature range, which brought the negative expansion of the a-axis, although the b- and c-axes increased with temperature. The anomalous thermal expansion is explained by the sum of the effects of the shrinkage of the a-axis and absorption of the b- and c-axes' expansion by the pores in the sintered body. 相似文献

The structural parameters with stability upon Si incorporation and elastic, electronic, thermodynamic and optical properties of Ti3Al1−xSixC2 (0≤x≤1) are investigated systematically by the plane wave pseudopotential method based on the density functional theory (DFT). The increase of some elastic parameters with increasing Si-content renders the alloys to possess higher compressive and tensile strength. The Vickers hardness value obtained with the help of Mulliken population analysis increases as x is increased from 0 to 1. The solid solutions considered are all metallic with valence and conduction bands, which have a mainly Ti 3d character, crossing the Fermi level. The temperature and pressure dependences of bulk modulus, normalized volume, specific heats, thermal expansion coefficient, and Debye temperature are all obtained through the quasi-harmonic Debye model with phononic effects for T=0−1000 K and P=0−50 GPa. The obtained results are compared with other results available. Further an analysis of optical functions for two polarization vectors reveals that the reflectivity is high in the visible–ultraviolet region up to ∼10.5 eV region showing promise as a good coating material. 相似文献

We give experimental results of magnetic susceptibility, thermal expansion and elastic constant measurements for CeSn3 and CePd3. We interpret these results with a phenomenological scaling function for the free energy and we include a brief discussion of CeAl3. The coupling between the electronic system and the lattice can be described by an electronic Grüneisen parameter Ωg associated with the unstable 4f system which turns out to become a system specific constant far below the fluctuation temperatureT 0. The coupling parameter T0Ωg is an order of magnitude larger than the coupling constant for stable valentRE systems extracted from crystal field effects. A generalization to include magnetic field dependent effects is also given. 相似文献

Calcium-modified Lead Titanate ceramics Pb0.76 Ca0.24 [(Co0.5 W0.5)0.05 Ti0.95O3] are studied by means of dielectric and thermal expansion measurements as a function of temperature. Results show that the phase transition has a diffusive character with an exponent τ that decreases when temperature increases. Above the transition temperature, Tc, the electrical conductivity of samples affects the thermal behaviour of the dielectric constant. From thermal expansion measurements, results show that the thermal elongation and thermal expansion coefficient separate from their normal behaviour at a temperature Td = 460°C, much higher than Tc and close to the phase transition temperature of PbTiO3. The difference Δα = α − α0 (anomalous part of the thermal expansion coefficient) decreases to zero when the temperature increases from Tc, following a logarithmic law Δα = F(logΔT). Thermal expansion results may be ascribed to some type of local polarization in the crystalline grains, which disappears near the phase transition temperature of PbTiO3. 相似文献

This paper reports an experimental study of the heat capacity and crystal lattice parameters of a polycrystalline sample of yttrium diboride prepared by high-temperature synthesis from elements. The electronic and lattice contributions to the heat capacity are isolated. The temperature dependences of the characteristic temperature, the linear thermal expansion coefficients αa(T) and α c (T), the bulk thermal expansion coefficient β(T), and the Grüneisen coefficient are calculated. A region of negative values of α c (T) and β(T) is revealed. Anharmonicity is found to exert only a minor effect on the YB2 lattice dynamics over a larger part of the temperature range covered. 相似文献

We report in-plane resistivity and elastic constant C33 measurements on the Na0.8CoO2 and Na0.5CoO2 systems. An ordering transition is found at T0=280 K for Na0.8CoO2. The temperature dependence of the elastic constant C33 propagating perpendicular to the CoO2 layers is interpreted, in a phenomenological approach, as being due to the anharmonicity of atomic vibrations. The effective Grüneisen parameter γeff deduced directly from the temperature dependence of C33 exhibits important changes at the charge ordering, magnetic and metal-insulator phase transitions. 相似文献

The isothermal elastic constants and the coefficient of anomalous thermal expansion of a magnetic lattice are discussed. The spin system is described by the Ising model with an exchange coupling depending on lattice spacing. A behavior of the elastic constants and the coefficient of thermal expansion is found which is in qualitative agreement with experiments. The isothermal compressibility remains positive nearT c and no thermo-mechanical instability occurs (which would lead to a first-order phase transitions), in contrast to earlier theories. 相似文献

We have investigated structural and elastic properties of PtN2 under high pressures using norm-conserving pseudopotentials within the local density approximation (LDA) in the frame of density-functional theory. Calculated results of PtN2 are in agreement with experimental and available theoretical values. The a/a0, V/V0, ductility/brittleness, elastic constants Cij, shear modulus C′, bulk modulus B, shear modulus G, Young's modulus E, Poisson's ratio σ and anisotropy factor A as a function of applied pressure are presented. Through the quasi-harmonic Debye model, we also study thermodynamic properties of PtN2. The thermal expansion versus temperature and pressure, thermodynamic parameters X (X=Debye temperature or specific heat) with varying pressure P, and heat capacity of PtN2 at various pressures and temperatures are estimated. 相似文献

Using our presented treatment with the volume effect on the force constants of the pure constituent, we study the thermal properties of Si-Ge solid solution from first principle in the electronic theory of solids. The specific heat at constant volume of Si1−xGex solid solution is monotonous function of the concentration x and is approximately given by the linear interpolation of atomic fraction. The Grüneisen constant and the thermal expansion coefficient of Si1−xGex system have the characteristic concentration dependence. The almost constant value at high temperatures and the negative minimum at low temperature of the Grüneisen constant are not monotonous as function of x, and show a maximum near x = 0.7 and a minimum near x = 0.2, respectively. Then, the linear thermal expansion coefficient at low and high temperatures deviate largely from the linear interpolation of the atomic fraction. 相似文献
