The five single crystal elastic constants of gadolinium, terbium and erbium have been measured within the temperature range 4.2–300 K. Contributions to the elastic constants due to domain and spin rotation effects were reduced and in some cases eliminated altogether by applying a magnetic field 2.5 T along the magnetic easy directions.

ABSTRACTThe temperature dependence of the in-plane C11 C22. C12 and C66 modes between 80 and 260 K of superconducting crystals of Bi2Sr2Ca1Cu208 have been obtained via the measurements of ultrasonic-velocities. The anisotropic elasticity in the a-b plane of single crystal Bi2 Sr2Ca1Cu2O8 is manifest. The shear modulus of sound propagation along the [110] with the polarization has been also calculated and shows an overall trend of softening over a wide temperature range above Tc. The shear modulus C6 6 shows three obvious softening minima around 240–250 K, 150 K and 100 K.

AbstractIn order to understand the superconducting gap nature of a $$\hbox {2H-Pd}_{0.08} \hbox {TaSe}_2$$ 2H-Pd 0.08 TaSe 2 single crystal with $$T_{c} = 3.13 \text { K}$$ T c = 3.13 K , in-plane thermal conductivity $$\kappa $$ κ , in-plane London penetration depth $$\lambda _{\text {L}}$$ λ L , and the upper critical fields $$H_{c2}$$ H c 2 have been investigated. At zero magnetic field, it is found that no residual linear term $$\kappa _{0}/T$$ κ 0 / T exists and $$\lambda _{\text {L}}$$ λ L follows a power-law $$T^n$$ T n (T: temperature) with n = 2.66 at $$T \le \frac{1}{3}T_c$$ T ≤ 1 3 T c , supporting nodeless superconductivity. Moreover, the magnetic-field dependence of $$\kappa _{0}$$ κ 0 /T clearly shows a shoulder-like feature at a low field region. The temperature dependent $$H_{c2}$$ H c 2 curves for both in-plane and out-of-plane field directions exhibit clear upward curvatures near $$T_c$$ T c , consistent with the shape predicted by the two-band theory and the anisotropy ratio between the $$H_{c2}$$ H c 2 (T) curves exhibits strong temperature-dependence. All these results coherently suggest that $$\hbox {2H-Pd}_{0.08} \hbox {TaSe}_2$$ 2H-Pd 0.08 TaSe 2 is a nodeless, multiband superconductor.
