Abstract
We present inelastic neutron scattering measurements of Y3Al5O12. The measured neutron-weighted phonon density-of-states and optical phonon frequencies are compared with the results from atomistic calculations within the Quasi-Harmonic Approximation (QHA) over a wide temperature range, using both first principles
density functional theory calculations and also an extended empirical interatomic-potential shell model scheme.
The phonon-related thermodynamic and elastic properties calculated within the QHA are in excellent agreement with the available experimental data.
