Theoretical Investigations on the elastic properties of BiFeO3 using EOS
نویسندگان
چکیده
Different equations of state (EOS) have been used to study pressure as a function of volume compressions at a given temperature. The critical test of EOS’ for solids under low compressions (<10GPa) by evaluating the pressure-volume derivative properties viz., isothermal bulk modulus and its pressure derivative calculated for BiFeO3. The elastic moduli such as bulk modulus, shear modulus, Young’s modulus and Poisson’s ratio have been calculated as a function of pressure. The values of elastic moduli have been obtained using compressional wave velocity and shear wave velocity. Both compressional and shear velocities and poisson’s ratio are in accordance with available experimental data. It is found that B-M EOS gives satisfactory result which is in good agreement with the Stacey EOS.

متن کاملGiant elastic tunability in strained BiFeO3 near an electrically induced phase transition.
Elastic anomalies are signatures of phase transitions in condensed matters and have traditionally been studied using various techniques spanning from neutron scattering to static mechanical testing. Here, using band-excitation elastic/piezoresponse spectroscopy, we probed sub-MHz elastic dynamics of a tip bias-induced rhombohedral-tetragonal phase transition of strained (001)-BiFeO3 (rhombohedr...
