Elastic Tensor of Sr$_2$RuO$_4$

Superconductivity 2009-11-07 v1

Abstract

The six independent elastic constants of Sr2_2RuO4_4 were determined using resonant ultrasound spectroscopy on a high-quality single-crystal specimen. The constants are in excellent agreement with those obtained from pulse-echo experiments performed on a sample cut from the same ingot. A calculation of the Debye temperature using the measured constants agrees well with values obtained from both specific heat and M\"{o}ssbauer measurements.
