Ladder Lattice Model of Soft Optical Phonon
نویسنده
چکیده
A linear lattice model for demonstrating a soft optical mode at a zone center is proposed. The unit cell consists of only two atoms. If the optical mode is sufficiently soft, anticrossing takes place between the optical and acoustic phonon branches. By using the generalized Langevin’s equation method, the spectral function is calculated analytically. The intensity of the optical mode disappears at approximately the anticrossing wave number. In general, the spectral line shape of the optical mode is asymmetric because of the interaction between the two branches.

In this paper, we study the phonon thermal properties of a ladder nanostructure in harmonic approximation. We present a model consisting of two infinite chains with different masses. Then, we investigate the effect of different masses on the phonon spectrum. Moreover, as a specific case, in the absence of the second neighbor interaction, we calculate the phonon density of states/modes. Finally...

متن کاملAspects of phonon spectra for classical Gaussian core models
Calculations have focused on several key aspects of phonon spectra for the stable lattice structures of the Gaussian core model. These structures include the linear array sD=1d, the close-packed triangular lattice sD =2d, and the low-density face-centered and high-density body-centered-cubic lattices sD=3d. In each dimension, compressing the system isotropically eventually causes strong depress...

Static properties, relatively intensity noise and intensity modulation response in quantum cascade lasers (QCLs) studied theoretically in this paper. The present rate equations model consists of three equations for the electrons density in the conduction band and one equation for photons density in cavity length. Two equations were derived to calculate the noise and modulation response. Calcula...
