By the moment method established previously on the basis of the statistical mechanics, the thermodynamic properties of a strongly anharmonic face-centered and body-centered cubic crystal with point defect are considered. The thermal expansion coefficient, the specific heat Cv and Cp, the isothermal and adiabatic compressibility, etc. are calculated. Our calculated results of the thermal expansion coefficient, the specific heat Cv and Cp… of W, Nb, Au and Ag metals at various temperatures agrees well with the measured values. The anharmonic effects in extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) in the single-shell model are considered. We have obtained a new formula for anharmonic contribution to the mean square relative displacement. The anharmonicity is proportional to the temperature and enters the phase change of EXAFS. Our calculated results of Debye–Waller factor and phase change in EXAFS of Cu at various temperatures agrees well with the measured values.

Thermal expansion measurements have been performed on a uvarovite rich garnet sample for the first time and compared with the expansion data on grossular and pyrope-rich garnets reported in the literature. A semiclassical model has been used to analyze the data and to obtain various thermodynamic parameters. Using these parameters, the lattice specific heat and the corresponding entropy have also been calculated.

AbstractThe thermodynamic quantities of the isothermal compressibility, thermal expansion and the specific heat are calculated here as a function of pressure by using the observed Raman frequencies of the lattice modes and vibrons in the η phase of solid nitrogen. The Pippard relations and their spectroscopic modifications are constructed, and the slope dP/dT is deduced from the Raman frequency shifts in this phase of N2. It is shown that the thermodynamic quantities can be predicted from the Raman frequency shifts, in particular, in the η phase of solid nitrogen.

Yttrium Aluminum Garnet (YAG, Y3Al5O12) and its varieties have applications in thermographic phosphors, lasing mediums, and thermal barriers. In this work, thermal properties of crystalline YAG where aluminum atoms are substituted with gallium atoms (Y3(Al1−xGax)5O12) are explored with molecular dynamics simulations. For YAG at 300K, the simulations gave values close to experimental values for constant-pressure specific heat, thermal expansion, and bulk thermal conductivity. For various values of x, the simulations predicted no change in thermal expansion, an increase in specific heat, and a decrease in thermal conductivity for x = 50%. Furthermore, the simulations predicted a decrease in thermal conductivity with decreasing system size.

Specific heat and thermal expansion measurements have been performed on Nd1−xLUxMn2 in the temperature range between 1.5K and 300K. Below 10K, anomalies are observed which are ascribed to a spin reorientation of the Nd sublattice. These anomalies are only slightly affected by the substitution of Nd by Lu. Large effects, however, are observed on the magnetic properties of the Mn sublattice. The antiferromagnetic order disappears for x exceeding 0.30. The data are analysed in terms of Grüneisen parameters. In the paramagnetic compound LuMn2, a spin-fluctuation contribution to the thermodynamic properties is observed. In the Nd-containing compounds, distinct contributions from the crystal field acting on the Nd ions can be distinguished. The variation of the magnetic properties of the Mn sublattice with the concentration of Lu is discussed.

Abstract Specific heat and thermal expansion are closely related. Following a discussion on thermal expansion theory, methods of measurement techniques are presented along with their advantages and disadvantages. The results of the measurements are then summarized for three classes of materials: metallics, nonmetallics, and composites. Because predicting thermal expansion values for unmeasured or novel materials is useful, the chapter also describes the means of making educated guesses for low-temperature values. A short discussion on how thermal expansion data can be used is followed by a section describing where such data can be found.
