Question
There is a one-dimensional solid lattice with two basis atoms of
mass m and M, respectively (lattice constant = a). Let the interaction
between atoms act only on adjacent atoms, and let the bonding force
coefficient be C (Fig.).
M
C
C
a
a) Draw the Brillouin zone and the approximate phonon
dispersion w=w(K), and write the name of each phonon
branch
b)
When K = TT/a, write down the normal mode energy and
discuss the relative motion of adjacent atoms.
c) If two atoms are of the same kind (m = M), plot the Brillouin
%3D
zone and phonon dispersion w=w(K).
