Keeping in tune the global developments we are creating an institutional repository using DSpace Software (Digital Library Software). We are archiving institutional knowledge like, faculty papers, theses, and dissertations in PDF format at DSpace. Students can access this digital information anywhere in the campus.

| Abstract: | A lattice dynamical study of InP, GaP and BP under pressure is reported by using two lattice dynamical model theories namely, the rigid ion and deformation bond approximation models. It is observed that the energies of the optical phonons and longitudinal acoustic phonons stiffen with pressure, while the transverse acoustic phonon frequency softens. The phonon density of states shows pronounced shift in the frequency spectra with pressure. The mode Grüneisen parameter indicates that the TA phonon modes have negative values and responsible for the lattice softening. The lattice specific heat at constant volume, CV increases with pressure. The obtained results are, in general, good agreement with available data. |
