Abstract
The Poisson's ratios of crystals with diamond/zincblende structures ar e studied by using a simple method which considers the elastic energy to be due to bond lengths and bond angles. The relationships for two P oisson's ratios, nu(110) and nu(001), are calculated with three slight ly different models and compared with the experimental data. This inve stigation of the materials' macroscopic properties of Poisson's ratios reveals their behavior at the microscopic level. (C) 1997 Elsevier Sc ience Ltd. All rights reserved.
