1 | Mattis, Daniel C. | Phonon model of vacancy-interstitial pair formation in solids | Bonds between neighboring atoms in a solid are imperfect harmonic oscillators. Through consideration of the nonlinearities, it is shown that vacancy-interstitial defect pairs can be described in terms of phonon dynamical variables. The effective spring constants are determined by self-consistency... | Harmonic; Potential; Homogeneous | 1984 |
