An extensive numerical study on specific heat at constant volume (Cv) for ordered and isotopically disordered lattices has been made. Cv at various temperatures for ordered and disordered linear and two-dimensional lattices have been compared and no appreciable difference in Cv between these two structures has been observed. Effect of concentration of light atoms on Cv for three-dimensional isotopically disordered lattices has also been shown.In spite of taking next-nearest-neighbour interaction into account, no substantial change in Cv between the ordered and isotopically disordered linear lattices has been found. It is shown that the low lying modes contribute substantially at low temperatures.

Abstract Specific heat is a fundamental property that relates the total heat per unit mass added to a system to the resultant temperature change of the system. This chapter begins with the definition and historical development of specific heat. Thermodynamic and solid state relationships are presented which include discussions about lattice specific heat and the effects of magnetic and superconducting transitions. Data sources for practical applications and methods of estimating specific heat for materials are also included. The chapter concludes with a section concerning the measurement of specific heat at low temperatures.
