Abstract
A simple method is proposed to calculate the component of electron int eraction potential with the ionic subsystem of a crystal quadratic in ionic displacement. The electron-ion interaction potential is calculat ed for the high-frequency A(g) modes in YBa2Cu3O7. The important role of the Madelung potential, which results in violation of the selection rules valid in the rigid muffin-tin approximation, is pointed out. Th e quadratic component of the potential can greatly affect the calculat ed matrix elements which correspond to electronic transitions involvin g absorption or emission of zero wave-vector phonons.
