Abstract: | The lattice dynamics, second and third order elastic constants, pressure derivatives of the second order elastic constants and the temperature variation of the lattice thermal expansion of Cadmium have been worked out utilising Keating's approach. The ten TOE constants are calculated using four anharmonic parameters. The model used here reproduces the measured pressure derivatives of the SOE constants of Cadmium extremely well. The low temperature limit of the volume Gruneisen function γL is found to be nearer to the value of Andres. The high temperature limit γv(T) is in good agreement with the value calculated by Gschneidner Jr. from the Cv data for Cadmium. The lattice dynamics of Cadmium is found to be essentially similar to that of Zinc. |
