Anomalous elastic properties of superionic ice TEXT SIZE: A A A
Elastic properties and sound velocities of superionic ice X and ice XVIII are investigated using ab initio molecular dynamics at 200 GPa and temperatures up to 4500 K. The dislocation of protons from their lattice sites leads to the significant elastic softening in ice X with increasing temperature. The phase transition from ice X to ice XVIII leads to an increasing in proton diffusion and elastic softening at 2000 K. We also observed the elastic stiffening with increasing temperature from 2000 to 3000 K in ice XVIII, which is similar to the behavior of some liquids. Above 3000 K, all the elastic constants decrease dramatically. Our study suggests proton diffusion has significant influence on the elastic properties, and the elastic property of superionic ice with increasing temperature is different from ordinary solids.
