Diamond Young's Modolus Property confusion

Hi Comsol Community,

the Young's modulus property of diamond in the Comsol material library is

105 x 10^9 Pascal

whereas the proper property value in literature is an order of magnitude larger:

1220 x 10^9 Pascal - www.chm.bris.ac.uk/motm/diamond/diamprop.htm

1220 x 10^9 Pascal - www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/0925963593902506

1220 x 10^9 Pascal - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Young%27s_modulus#cite_note-27

I understand that this number can vary for different crystal orientations, quality, etc. but I found no data justifying the big discrepancy of the Comsol value with other values found.

Any idea why that is?

Cheers,

Erik

Hi

My conclusion newer trust one source always verify,
perhaps it's a typo, it's worth to send the remark directly to "support",
But in my 4.3a I read about 1.1448E12[Pa] for E at about 300[K]
So it might have been corrected since

Good luck

Okay, good they corrected it in 4.3. Just wanted to make sure .

Hi Ivar, I actually find the same value Erik reported in V4.3a which is an order of magnitude too low. Where do you find this higher value?

Hi Nagi

indeed I searched for Diamond, but as I have the full material library I took that one, the "other" one you are referring to is basic materials "C[100]". This is probably NOT diamond but some C crystalline structure (unfortunately no info is given I see)

the "nu" is also quite different

So worth a question to COMSOL support (I leave that to the discoverer ;)

if it's not a typo, COMSOL should update their INFO section to explain what it is, even if it probably is stated somewhere in on of the models, but which one ? (or the material book ?)

Anyhow just a good reminder that one should ALWAYS recheck all data, even when one believes its trustworthy ;)

Thanks for the note about diamond material, I am using that one now and the E value looks correct (at room temperature). Eventually I'll post the support about C[100]
