Adiabatic and isothermal elastic constants for highly anharmonic crystals

  • Published:
Physics of condensed matter

Abstract

The mass operator of the phonon Green function for a highly anharmonic crystal in the ladder approximation is derived. In order to calculate the mass operator in the collision-dominated regime it is necessary to solve the Boltzmann-like equations. These solutions allow us to find the thermal conductivity coefficient and to prove that the thermodynamic relation between adiabatic and isothermal elastic constants is satisfied.
