Lattice Dynamical Study of Indium

Abstract
The lattice dynamics of the body-centered tetragonal crystal has been investigated. The interatomic forces considered include, in addition to the central forces and angular forces of the type employed by Clark, Gazis, and Wallis, those forces arising from certain energies owing to the compressibility of the conduction electrons and their interaction with ions. The approach has been utilized to study the metal indium, and results are presented for the dispersion curves and the Debye temperature.
