Description:
We present for the first time the experimentally derived complete elastic stiffness tensors of orthorhombic metal guanidinium formates,([C(NH2)3]-[M2+(HCOO)3],MGFs),with M2+= Zn2+, Mn2+, and Cu2+ which are structurally related to (ABX3)-perovskites using ultrasound techniques, Brillouin spectroscopy, and thermal diffuse scattering. Density functional theory calculations were also performed to calculate the elastic tensor of orthorhombic MGFs and extended to the study of trigonal MGFs with M2+= Ca2+and Cd2+. All MGFs studied here are very compressible, with bulk moduli ranging from 20 to 30 GPa. The MGFs possess a significant anisotropy in their elastic properties, which is extremely large, especially in the case of CdGF and CaGF.
