Vi. Zubov et al., INTERATOMIC CORRELATION MOMENTS AND MEAN-SQUARE RELATIVE DISPLACEMENTS IN AN ANHARMONIC CRYSTAL WITH THE FACE-CENTERED-CUBIC LATTICE, Modern physics letters B, 10(21), 1996, pp. 1043-1051
Using the correlative method of unsymmetrized self-consistent field we
study the dynamical properties of anharmonic crystals, namely, the qu
adratic correlations between atomic displacements from the equilibrium
positions and their mean square relative displacements in anharmonic
crystals. In the present paper we calculate these values for a weakly
anharmonic crystals with the face-centered cubic lattice in which the
nearest neighbors interact. The second order of the method enables one
to calculate for this lattice the correlations between the nearest, s
econd, third and fourth neighbors. The results are compared with those
obtained previously for simplified models. The dependence on the coor
dination number and on the dimensionality of the lattice is discussed.
