title: Measurement of a third-order elastic constant in silicon by a comparison method
abstract: The third-order elastic constant C111 of silicon is measured with a comparison method, based on the interaction between longitudinal acoustic waves. The value is in good agreement with published values and demonstrates the validity of the method.
