Relationship Between Phonons and Thermal Expansion in Zn(CN)2 and Ni(CN)2 from Inelastic Neutron Scattering and Ab-Initio Calculations
Zn(CN)2 and Ni(CN)2 are known for exhibiting anomalous thermal expansion over a wide temperature range. The volume thermal expansion coefficient for the cubic, three dimensionally connected material, Zn(CN)2, is negative (αV = -51 × 10 -6 K) while for Ni(CN)2, a tetragonal material, the thermal expansion coefficient is negative in the two dimensionally connected sheets (αa=-7 × 10 -6 K), but th...
متن کاملA first-principles lattice dynamical study of type-I, type-II, and type-VIII silicon clathrates
The pristine crystalline type-I, type-II, and type-VIII silicon clathrates have been studied using state of the art first-principles calculations based on density functional theory and density functional perturbation theory. We apply quasi-harmonic approximation to study structural stability, the possibility of temperature or pressuredriven phase transitions, along with Grüneisen parameters, co...
متن کاملA Model for the Thermal Expansion of Ag(111) and other Metal Surfaces
We develop a model to study the thermal expansion of surfaces, wherein phonon frequencies are obtained from ab initio total energy calculations. Anharmonic effects are treated exactly in the direction normal to the surface, and within a quasiharmonic approximation in the plane of the surface. We apply this model to the Ag(111) and Al(111) surfaces, and find that our calculations reproduce the e...
متن کاملElectron-phonon interactions and high-temperature thermodynamics of vanadium and its alloys
Inelastic neutron scattering was used to measure the phonon densities of states DOSs for pure V and solid solutions of V with 6 to 7at% of Co, Nb, and Pt, at temperatures from 10 K to 1323 K. Ancillary measurements of heat capacity and thermal expansion are reported on V and V-7at%Co and used to help identify the different sources of entropy. Pure V exhibits an anomalous anharmonic stiffening o...
متن کاملPhonon Anharmonicity of Ionic Compounds and Metals
Vibrational studies of materials at elevated temperatures are relatively rare, and most phonon work also has emphasized harmonic behavior. Non-harmonic effects are often unexplored. These non-harmonic effects can be important for many properties of the material, such as thermal transport and phase stability. Phonon theory and computational methods are briefly reviewed, and the experimental tech...
