固体Ce中γ-α相变的弹性反常理论

Theory of elastic anomalies at the gamma--alpha phase transition in solid Ce

K. H. Michel, A. V. Nikolaev

摘要:

本文从可压缩面心立方晶格上4f电子产生的四极密度模型出发,用解析理论研究了Fm ~ 3 m → Pa ~ 3相变时的弹性反常。该模型被视为代表的γ-α相变在Ce。耦合的(线性)晶格位移的四极取向密度波动的平方重整化的弹性常数。的四极密度到取向有序的Pa 3结构的凝聚作为温度和压力的函数进行了研究。转变的前兆效应导致弹性常数c11的异常软化,而c44没有表现出这样的软化。理论结果是在良好的定性协议与压力实验的弹性常数(相当于声速)在$γ-α过渡Ce。讨论了与C_(60)富勒烯中Fm_(3 m)→ Pa_(3)跃迁的晶格动力学理论类比和实验结果的惊人相似性。

英文摘要:

Starting from a model of 4f-electron generated quadrupolar densities on a compressible fcc lattice, the elastic anomalies at the Fm3m -> Pa3 phase transition are studied by means of analytical theory. The model is taken as representative for the gamma-alpha phase transition in Ce. The coupling of the (linear) lattice displacements to the square of the quadrupolar orientational density fluctuations renormalizes the elastic constants. The condensation of the quadrupolar densities into the orientationally ordered Pa3 structure is studied as function of temperature and pressure. Precursor effects of the transition lead to an anomalous softening of the elastic constant c11 while c44 exhibits no such softening. The theoretical results are in excellent qualitative agreement with pressure experiments on the elastic constants (equivalently on sound velocities) at the $gamma-alpha transition in Ce. Lattice dynamical analogies in theory and striking similarities in experimental results with the Fm3m -> Pa3 transition in C60 fullerite are discussed.
