Elastic and Piezoelectric Parameters of the Crystals of Histidine Phosphite L-Hist · H3РО3 Measured by the Method of Electromechanical Resonance

Аннотация

Single crystals of L-histidine phosphite (L-Hist · H₃РО₃) have been grown from aqueous solution by slow cooling method. The results of elemental analysis, of X-ray-diffraction studies of the crystal structure, and the habitus of the obtained crystals are given. The elastic and piezoelectric coefficients have been measured on the plates with the (010) natural faces by the method of electromechanical resonance for stretching vibrations in the temperature range 295–340 K. Elastic compliance values s₃₃ and s₂₂ and the corresponding elastic-moduli values, piezoelectric coefficients d₂₃ and d₂₂, coefficients of electromechanical coupling, and temperature coefficient of the resonance frequency are obtained. A comparison is given with other crystals, which are compounds of amino acids with phosphorous or phosphoric acid.
