Abstract

From a material's second-order elastic-stiffness coefficients Cijkl and its third-order elastic-stiffness coefficients Cijklmn, we calculated the scalar dimensionless Gr neisen parameter γ, the single most important property of an anharmonic solid. We give γ for elements and compounds including halides, oxides, and covalent compounds.
