Abstract
The electronic contribution to the second- and third-order elastic constants of -type lead telluride have been calculated as a function of temperature and carrier concentration. The results show that the electronic contribution to the elastic constants varies markedly with the carrier concentration if the nonparabolic, nonellipsoidal band model for is used.
