Abstract
The elastic constants of tetragonal Zn were measured at room temperature from ambient conditions to 10 kbar. The values at 1 bar and 10 kbar are (in dynes/) softens with increasing pressure. shows a weak pressure dependence. Similar behavior has been observed in Ni, Ti, and in the distorted rutile structure crystal Te. The soft is believed to be a precursor to a pressure-induced orthorhombic distortion.
