Paper doi abstract bibtex Thermal expansion of diborides (AB2), with different intercalated atoms (A) is studied as a function of temperature in the range of 100-370 K by high-resolution x-ray powder diffraction. The results indicate a well defined relationship between the anisotropy of the thermal expansion and the micro-strain of the boron layers, ɛa = (a-a0)/a0 (where a0 = c/1.08 is the equilibrium a-axis for an unstrained AB2 system), determined by the atomic radius of the intercalated atoms. The thermal expansion is isotropic at ɛa = 0 (i.e., near c/a = 1.08) while the AB2 system is unstrained, and it gets anisotropic away from the equilibrium. The anisotropy increases with increasing micro-strain in both directions (positive or negative, i.e. tensile or compressive) suggesting that the micro-strain is a key variable to define the state of diborides. As a matter of fact, the MgB2 with the highest Tc shows a tensile micro-strain, ɛa = 6% and a large thermal expansion anisotropy.
