Lattice Dynamics: Theory of Acoustics in Solids on the Atomic Scale
Monday, December 4, 1989 3:00 p.m. Dr. F.W. de Wette Department of Physics The University of Texas at Austin Lattice dynamics describes the vibrational motions in solids on the atomic scale; acoustics is the long-wave-length or acoustic limit of this description. After a short introduction of the formalism of lattice dynamics and of the notion…
