Elastic, mechanical and ultrasonic studies of boron monopnictides in two different structural phases

This work explores the investigation of tin monochalcogenides i.e. SnX (X: S, Se, Te) at room temperature (300[Formula: see text]K). The mechanical, thermophysical and ultrasonic properties of SnX (X: S, Se, Te) have been evaluated using the computed values of second- and third-order elastic constants (SOECs and TOECs). The SOECs and TOECs have been obtained using Born–Mayer potential model at 0[Formula: see text]K and 300[Formula: see text]K. The brittleness behavior of tin monochalcogenides is detected by Pugh’s ratio. It is observed that phonon–phonon interaction mechanism is dominant in tin monochalcogenides leading to high ultrasonic attenuation. The obtained temperature dependence behavior of tin monochalcogenides is validated via comparison with available works of literature data in previous works done experimentally as well as theoretically by others.

The elastic, mechanical, thermophysical and ultrasonic properties of platinum group metal (PGM) carbides XC (X: Rh, Pd, Ir) have been investigated at room temperature. The Coulomb and Born-Mayer potential model has been used to compute second and third order elastic constants (SOECs and TOECs) at 0K and 300K. The obtained values of SOECs are used to evaluate the mechanical properties such as Young’s modulus, bulk modulus, shear modulus, Pugh’s indicator, Zener anisotropic constant and Poisson’s ratio at room temperature. The materials show the brittle nature as the value of Pugh’s indicator for PGM carbides has been achieved less than or nearly equal to 1.75. Again the values of SOECs are used to compute the ultrasonic velocities along <100>, <110> and <111> directions for the longitudinal and shear modes of wave propagation. Further the values of Debye temperature, thermal conductivity, specific heat per unit volume, energy density, average value of ultrasonic Grüneisen parameter, thermal relaxation time, non-linear parameter have been calculated with the help of SOECs, TOECs, ultrasonic velocities, density and molecular weight. Finally, the ultrasonic attenuation due to phonon-phonon interaction and due to thermoelastic relaxation mechanisms have been calculated with the use of all associated parameters. The calculated values of elastic, mechanical, thermophysical and ultrasonic properties are compared with available literature and discussed.
