The simplest anharmonic characteristics of Ir and Rh are discussed in the framework of a previously developed simple pseudopotential model which describes the elastic moduli, phonon spectra and the lattice heat capacity in the harmonic approximation of these metals succesfully. The microscopic Gruneisen parameters, the dependences of the elastic moduli on pressure, the coefficient of thermal expansion and the equations of state at the finite temperatures have been calculated. The ab initio calculations of the energy-band structure and the equation of state for Ir at T=0 have been done to test the model for adequacy at high pressures. The values of different contributions (zero-point oscillations, quasiharmonic, etc.) in the considered thermodynamic characteristics of Ir and Rh are discussed.
We have investigated the anisotropic thermal expansion of graphite using ab-initio calculation of lattice dynamics and anharmonicity of the phonons, which reveal that the negative thermal expansion (NTE) in the a-b plane below 600 K and very large po
Recent reported very high thermal conductivities in the cubic boron arsenide (BAs) and boron phosphide (BP) crystals could potentially provide a revolutionary solution in the thermal management of high power density devices. To fully facilitate such
Synchrotron diffraction as a function of temperature and pressure, specific heat, magnetic susceptibility and small-angle neutron scattering experiments have revealed an anomalous response of MnGe. Similar but less pronounced behavior has also been o
MnWO4 has attracted attention because of its ferroelectric property induced by frustrated helical spin order. Strong spin-lattice interaction is necessary to explain ferroelectricity associated with this type of magnetic order.We have conducted therm
Recent measurements of an unusual high thermal conductivity of around 1000 W m-1 K-1 at room temperature in cubic boron arsenide (BAs) confirm predictions from theory and suggest potential applications of this semiconductor compound for thermal manag
