Elastic and Ultrasonic Studies on RM (R = Tb, Dy, Ho, Er, Tm; M = Zn, Cu) Compounds
Keyword(s):
AbstractThe present article comprises computation of elastic, ultrasonic, and thermo-physical properties of RM (R = Tb, Dy, Ho, Er, Tm; M = Zn, Cu) compounds at 300 K. The second-order elastic constants (SOECs) and elastic moduli are evaluated initially, using potential model approach considering interaction up to second nearest neighbours. The ultrasonic velocities are obtained for wave propagation along <100>, <110>, and <111> crystallographic directions using evaluated SOECs. The Debye temperature, specific heat at constant volume, thermal energy density, thermal conductivity, and thermal relaxation time are also calculated. The obtained results are compared and analysed for justification and application of materials.
