Back to Dispersion CurvesBack to Dispersion Curves
We know we can measure the phonon dispersion We know we can measure the phonon dispersion curves -curves - the dependence of the phonon frequencies upon the wavevector q.
To calculate the heat capacity, we begin by summing over all the energies of all the possible phonon modes, multiplied by the Planck Distribution.

To generalize this, go back to the definition...the number of modes is the product of the density of states and the frequency unit.
There is one mode for each mobile atom.

• Knowing the dispersion curve we can calculate the group velocity, d/dq.
• Near the zone boundaries, the group velocity goes to zero and the density of states goes to infinity. This is called a singularity.

Debye Approximation:For small values of q, there is a linear relationship =vq, where v is the speed of sound.
...true for lowest energies, long wavelengths
This will allow us to calculate the density of states.

• Einstein's oscillator treatment of specific heat gave qualitative agreement with experiment and gave the correct high temperature limit (the Law of Dulong and Petit).
• The quantitative fit to experiment was improved by Debye's recognition that there was a maximum number of modes of vibration in a solid.
• He pictured the vibrations as standing wave modes in the crystal, similar to the electromagnetic modes in a cavity which successfully explained blackbody radiation.

ωD represents the maximum frequency of a normal mode in this model.
ωD is the energy level spacing of the oscillator of maximum frequency (or the maximum energy of a phonon).
It is to be expected that the quantum nature of the system will continue to be evident as long as
The temperature in gives a rough demarcation between quantum mechanical regime and the classical regime for the lattice.

Typical Debye frequency:
(a) Typical speed of sound in a solid ~ 5×103 m/s. A simple cubic lattice, with side a = 0.3 nm, gives
ωD ≈ 5×1013 rad/s.
(b) We could assume that kmax ≈ /a, and use the linear approximation to get
ωD ≈ vsound kmax ≈ 5×1013 rad/s.
A typical Debye temperature:
θD ≈ 450 K
Most elemental solids have θD somewhat below this.

Measuring Specific Heat Measuring Specific Heat CapacityCapacityDifferential scanning calorimetry (DSC)
is a relatively fast and reliable method for measuring the enthalpy and heat capacity for a wide range of materials. The temperature differential between an empty pan and the pan containing the sample is monitored while the furnace follows a fixed rate of temperature increase/decrease. The sample results are then compared with a known material undergoing the same temperature program.
