Abstract

The thermophysical properties of diamond, a metastable material at room temperature, are difficult to measure at high temperatures. These properties are of interest for testing equation of state and interatomic potential models. Here we utilize a geometrical lattice transformation, one dimensional lattice dynamical theory, and the principle of corresponding states to calculate the elastic constants of diamond over an extended temperature range.
