Abstract

Physical Sciences Physics Physics, Applied Science & Technology
We report on the electronic, thermal, and elastic properties of the layered ternary, Ti(2)SC. Resistivity, Hall effect, and magnetoresistance were measured as a function of temperature between 2 and 300 K and at fields up to 9 T. The Hall coefficient is negative and roughly temperature independent. The transport results were analyzed within a two-band framework, with electrons as the dominant charge carrier. The room-temperature thermal conductivity (approximate to 60 W/m K) is the highest of any MAX phase measured to date, with a substantial phonon contribution. The specific heat was measured from 2 to 300 K, yielding a Debye temperature of 765 K and in agreement with the Debye temperature of 745 K found from ultrasonic time-of-flight measurements. Young's, shear, and bulk moduli from the latter measurements were 290, 125, and 145 GPa, respectively. The calculated values of the lattice parameters (a=3.2051 angstrom and c=11.2636 angstrom), and Young's, shear, and bulk moduli (329, 138, and 179 GPa, respectively), based on the results of density functional theoretical simulations, compare favorably with measurements.
