Elastic properties of rare-earth cobaltites RBaCo4O7 (R = Y, Er - Lu) are studied in the temperature range (4.2 - 300) K. Significant softening of Youngs modulus for Lu-and Yb-cobaltites is found at temperature decrease, showing an instability of the crystal structure and accompanying by a reverse jump at the structural phase transition. Softening and jump at phase transition decrease more than by the order of value, while the transition temperature Ts and hysteresis dTs enlarge from Lu-to Tm-and Er-compounds. Smooth and weak elastic anomaly at the magnetic phase transition is found resulting from low dimension and frustration of exchange interactions in the Co subsystem in most of the rare-earth cobaltites studied.

Raman spectra of Ho[Formula: see text]NdxFe(BO3)4 ([Formula: see text], 0.75, 0.5, 0.25) have been studied in temperature range 10–400[Formula: see text]K. Two compositions ([Formula: see text], [Formula: see text]) demonstrate structural phase transition with soft mode restoration. The addition of Nd atoms increases interatomic spacing and decreases the temperature of structural phase transition. The solid solutions ([Formula: see text], 0.5, 0.25) demonstrate the emergence of the peaks corresponding to magnetoelastic interaction below Néel temperature. The order parameter of the magnetic phase transition has been determined. The equal concentrations of holmium and neodymium atoms prevent magnon soft modes condensation caused by exchange interactions in Fe–O–Fe chains are observed. Calculations confirm the data obtained in the experiment.

It has been found that the temperature dependences of the Young’s modulus for rare-earth cobaltites RBaCo4O7 (R = Dy - Er, Y) exhibit significant hysteresis and irreversible effects over a wide range (80–280) K between the structural and magnetic phase transition temperatures. At the magnetic phase transition temperature, there are weak and smoothed anomalies of the Young’s modulus, which correlate with the low dimensionality and frustration of the exchange interactions in the Kagome lattice of the Co subsystem for the studied rare-earth cobaltites.

Elastic properties are important mechanical properties which are dependent on the structure, and the coupling of ferroelasticity with ferroelectricity and ferromagnetism is vital for the development of multiferroic metal–organic frameworks (MOFs). The elastic properties and energy loss related to the disorder–order ferroelectric transition in [NH4][Mg(HCOO)3] and [(CH3)2NH2][Mg(HCOO)3] were investigated using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA). The DSC curves of [NH4][Mg(HCOO)3] and [(CH3)2NH2][Mg(HCOO)3] exhibited anomalies near 256 K and 264 K, respectively. The DMA results illustrated the minimum in the storage modulus and normalized storage modulus, and the maximum in the loss modulus, normalized loss modulus and loss factor near the ferroelectric transition temperatures of 256 K and 264 K, respectively. Much narrower peaks of loss modulus, normalized loss modulus and loss factor were observed in [(CH3)2NH2][Mg(HCOO)3] with the peak temperature independent of frequency, and the peak height was smaller at a higher frequency, indicating the features of first-order transition. Elastic anomalies and energy loss in [NH4][Mg(HCOO)3] near 256 K are due to the second-order paraelectric to ferroelectric phase transition triggered by the disorder–order transition of the ammonium cations and their displacement within the framework channels, accompanied by the structural phase transition from the non-polar hexagonal P6322 to polar hexagonal P63. Elastic anomalies and energy loss in [(CH3)2NH2][Mg(HCOO)3] near 264 K are due to the first-order paraelectric to ferroelectric phase transitions triggered by the disorder–order transitions of alkylammonium cations located in the framework cavities, accompanied by the structural phase transition from rhombohedral R3¯c to monoclinic Cc. The elastic anomalies in [NH4][Mg(HCOO)3] and [(CH3)2NH2][Mg(HCOO)3] showed strong coupling of ferroelasticity with ferroelectricity.
