Abstract
Localization of lattice vibrations is investigated for a soft zone-cen ter optic mode overlapping the acoustic spectrum of an anharmonic one- dimensional diatomic lattice. An intrinsic resonant mode is found belo w the plane-wave optic spectrum. Using numerical methods the frequency and eigenvector of the intrinsic resonant mode has been measured as a function of its amplitude and the optic-mode frequency. Molecular-dyn amics simulations show that these localized modes are stable.
