Coulomb effects in dynamics of polar lattices

Materials Science 2009-11-07 v1

Abstract

Zone-center phonon frequencies of polar lattices are calculated for uniaxial crystals from the symmetry arguments. Long-range Coulomb forces and crystal anisotropy are explicitly taken into account. Free-carrier contributions into a dielectric constant are included. The angular dispersion of optical-phonon modes is compared with data for hexagonal 6H-SiC politype.
