On the Calculation of Phonon Dispersion Curves in Insulators

  • Chapter

Abstract

The basic features of some wellknown phenomenological force constant models are reviewed. Their interrelation with attempts for ab initio calculations of the phonon-spectrum is discussed. A formal derivation of the dispersion curves in the harmonic Born-Oppenheimer approximation and results of an application of the method to LiF are given.
