Popis: Chapter 1 was concerned with the binding forces in crystals and with the manner in which atoms were arranged. Chapter 1 defined, in effect, the universe with which we will be concerned. We now begin discussing the elements of this universe with which we interact. Perhaps the most interesting of these elements are the internal energy excitation modes of the crystals. The quanta of these modes are the “particles” of the solid. This chapter is primarily devoted to a particular type of internal mode – the lattice vibrations.
