摘要
Micro-Brillouin light scattering experiments were performed on flux grown D-type (monoclinic, P2(1)/c) Ho2Si2O7 single crystal from room temperature to similar to 850 K. Both the hypersonic velocity (V-LA) and related elastic constant (c(33)) of the longitudinal acoustic phonons propagating along < 001 >-direction showed a small dispersion at T similar to 565 K whereas the same could not be observed clearly in attenuation/damping. The overall temperature dependent behavior of elastic constant and hypersonic velocity was attributed to the lattice anharmonicity of the crystal in the investigated temperature range.
