AbstractLinear-response theory provides an efficient approach for calculating the vibrational properties of solids. Moreover, because the use of supercells is eliminated, points with little or no symmetry in the Brillouin zone can be handled. This allows accurate determinations of quantities such as real-space force constants and electron-phonon coupling parameters. We present highly converged calculations of the spectral function α2F(ω) and the average electron-phonon coupling for Al, Pb, and Li. We also present results for the free energy of vacancy formation in Al calculated within the harmonic approximation.

The thermal shifts of R1 and R2 lines in Cr3+-doped forsterite (Mg2SiO4) are studied by considering both the static contribution due to lattice thermal expansion and the vibrational contribution due to electron-phonon interaction. In the studies, the thermal expansion coefficient of the Cr3+ center is assumed reasonably as that of the corresponding cluster in the host crystal. The results suggest that for R1 and R2 lines the static contributions are opposite in sign and in magnitude about 37% and 45%, respectively, of the corresponding vibrational contributions. The true electron-phonon coupling coefficients α' (obtained by considering both contributions) increase by about 58% and 81%, respectively, for R1 and R2 lines in comparison with the corresponding parameters α obtained by considering only the vibrational contribution. It appears that for the reasonable explanation of thermal shift of spectral lines and the exact estimation of electron-phonon coupling coefficient, both the static and vibrational contributions should be taken into account

AbstractThe thermal blue shifts of three spectral lines E1(5D0→7F0), E2(5D0→7F1), and E3(5D1→7F0) in SrFCl:Sm2+ crystal are investigated by a complete expression consisting of both the static contribution due to lattice thermal expansion and the vibrational contribution owing to electron-phonon interaction. The obtained true electron-phonon coupling parameters α′ in both sign and magnitude are considerably different from the apparent electron-phonon coupling parameters α acquired in the previous paper by considering only the vibrational contribution. It is suggested that differing from the simple expression including only the vibrational contribution (many authors thought that it cannot be used to explain the thermal blue shifts), the complete expression containing both the vibrational and static contributions is effective in the studies of thermal shift (whether red shift or blue shift) and true electron-phonon coupling parameter for a spectral line in crystals.
